A New Classic
Yussef Dayes - Black Classical Music [BWOOD310RT UK&US 2023 24-Bit 176.4kHz FLAC] Pride of place (and an early start) for a jazz Sunday is one of the best new albums of 2023, by one of the very best new, young jazz drummers Yussef Dayes. Digitalia members will know this from my digitally sourced post earlier this year - here is the double vinyl edition which is considerately mastered for vinyl to truly reveal the full dynamics of this high quality recording. Essentially a multi-genre album of organic music, crossing over between contemporary jazz, funk, soul, afrobeat and hip-hop, Black Classical Music will no doubt feature on most music critics best of the year list. Well recorded and performed by some the best of new young, mostly British talent, this album is a highly enjoyable listen from beginning to end.
