Ended Thursday and welcomed Friday after a walk with Indo-Jazz Fusions II by Joe Harriott - John Mayer Double Quintet, released on Columbia in 1968.

Jarmo Eskelinen October 17, 2025

...on this second try the fusion works much better, especially on the side-long Partita. After the Indian intro, the tune flows easily to a relaxed modal groove, with tablas and the sitar gelling perfectly with the jazz band. Harriott is a talented saxophonist and original improviser, with a tonal world and sound well suited for world fusion. Side two is a bit more uneven, but the closing track ’Subject’ nails the pioneering sound convincingly. On the next album ’Hum Dono’ Harriott would find his soul mate in guitarist Amancio D’Silva and reach the pinnacle of the indo-jazz fusion to new heights.

Ended Monday and welcomed Tuesday after a swim with Indo-Jazz Suite by The Joe Harriott Double Quintet, released in 1966 on Columbia

Indo-Jazz Suite Review by Thom Jurek

...This work, written and directed by Mayer, offered the closest ever collaboration and uniting of musics East and West. Based almost entirely in the five-note raga -- or tonic scale that Indian classical music emanates from -- and Western modalism, the four ragas that make up the suite are a wonder of tonal invention and modal complexity, and a rapprochement to Western harmony. The band Harriott assembled here included his own group -- pianist Pat Smythe, bassist Coleridge Goode, and drummer Allan Ganley -- as well as trumpeter Kenny Wheeler, flutist Chris Taylor, Diwan Mothar on sitar, Chandrahas Paiganka on tamboura, and Keshan Sathe on tabla, with Mayer playing violin and Harriott on his alto...
