The Mike Taylor Quartet – Trio

Description

On 4 July 2025 Decca Records are officially reissuing two albums by British jazz composer, pianist, and band leader Mike Taylor, on vinyl for the very first time since their original release: ‘Pendulum’ (1966) and ‘Trio’ (1967). Part of Decca’s British Jazz Explosion series, these significant recordings have long been sought after on vinyl by collectors and connoisseurs. With a slightly (possibly deliberately) misleading title, ‘Trio’ features Taylor, Hiseman, with Jack Bruce and/or Ron Rubin on bass. Both albums were originally recorded at Lansdowne Studios, under the supervision of Denis Preston.
