The Pool
Ended Tuesday and welcomed wednesday with Pipedream by Mark Charig With Keith Tippett and Ann Winter, released on Ogun in 1977.
Marcello Carlin wrote on his Ogun label blog (link below):
Charig is best known for his work in Keith Tippett's sundry groups and the Tippett-adjacent models of Soft Machine and King Crimson, as well as the Brotherhood of Breath and its various offshoots ; he has also been one of the core members of the London Jazz Composers' Orchestra for over half a century. ...he was a member of a hard Left jazz-rock agitprop band named Redbrass, whose personnel briefly included a young singer named Annie Lennox. Yet Pipedream is one of only a very few records to be issued under his name..
Pipedream, however, is a major statement. Wanting to get away from That London, Charig and Tippett drove to ..Bristol..

Family Affair by Harry Miller's Isipingo, released on Ogun in 1977

The record begins with the easy kwela strut of the title track, Moholo-Moholo audibly having a ball with his ride and rimshot refrains (his unshakeable consistency here puts me in mind of Jaki Liebezeit with Can) as the catchy riff leads into solos by Griffiths, whose playing is romantic yet occasionally discursive, Charig, who seems intent on recapturing Feza’s ghost with his snarling triple-tonguing and hyperactive half-valve shrieks before settling back into his more familiar meditative melancholy – and Tippett doubles up and multiplies supporting piano figures beneath, or alongside, the trumpeter – and Osborne, who leads the ensemble into a free section...
