Varech by Henri Texier, released on Eurodisc in 1977.
An early pioneer of “world music,” Henri Texier takes his double bass to uncharted territory on Varech, blending avant-garde jazz with Celtic, African, Indian, and Middle Eastern elements for a singular statement that’s as funky as it is groundbreaking. Texier cut his teeth playing with world jazz legend Don Cherry in the 60’s and has also worked with greats Donald Byrd, Bud Powell, Dexter Gordon and Jef Gilson. The bass is obviously a major focus here, but Texier’s voice is also spectacular. “Les “Là-bas,” “L’Elephant,” and “Terre-basse” are highlights, but a full listen is recommended.

Ended yesterday and started Friday with the eponymous debut LP by Rena Rama a Swedish jazz band formed in 1971, noted for mixing jazz, unusual time signatures, and African and Asian folk themes.
Its original personnel included Lennart Åberg (saxophone, flute), Bobo Stenson (piano), Palle Danielsson (bass), and Bengt Berger (drums). Both Stenson and Åberg previously had worked with Red Mitchell, and Danielsson with Steve Kuhn. Berger had previously studied percussion in India. Stenson had already recorded his first trio LP titled Underwear (ECM).
Recordings with the original lineup include the LP Rena Rama on the Caprice label, recorded in Stockholm in 1973 - Wikipedia
