Three CD set celebrating an exciting, revolutionary time in British jazz when musical boundaries were stretched or ignored and new identities forged. With British jazz back in the news through genre stretching artists such as Ezra Collective and Shabaka Hutchings it's a perfect time to rediscover this influential period in British jazz history. Featuring celebrated jazz figures such as Dick Morrissey, Tubby Hayes, Don Rendell, Ian Carr, Joe Harriott and Graham Collier alongside bands such as Colosseum, Satisfaction and Keef Hartley Band that merged jazz and rock. This box set tells a story of British Jazz at a time of cultural change, a period of experimentation and transformation in music, from the swinging hard bop of The Dick Morrissey Quartet to the pioneering jazz rock fusion of Nucleus (featuring Ian Carr), If (who included Dick Morrissey) and Brian Auger's Oblivion Express. Key artists include The Dick Morrissey Quartet, The Don Rendell / Ian Carr Quintet, The Joe Harriott Double Quintet, The John Dankworth Orchestra, The Graham Bond Organization, The Mike Westbrook Concert Band, The Tubby Hayes Quartet, The Graham Collier Sextet, John McLaughlin, Nucleus, Brian Auger, Jack Bruce, If and Julie Driscoll
