Verve, 1969
In what many consider to be the birth of jazz fusion, Emergency, led by Tony Williams (drums) with bandmates John Mclaughlin (guitar) and Larry Young (organ), is a true adventure in the beginning of the jazz-rock blend that would take shape in late 1960’s and beyond. From the opening title track, the direction is decisive and commands attention as Williams leads his crew through a mixture of swing, rock and free jazz that cements its place as one of the most influential albums of the time. The Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
