Product Description
Yusef Lateef’s Jazz ‘Round the World marks his first release for Impulse, capturing the artist at a pivotal turning point. While his earlier recordings stayed largely within the jazz tradition, this 1964 label debut looks outward, drawing from a wide range of global folk melodies reimagined through Lateef’s singular voice. Long before the term “world music” existed, Lateef was already there. Across the album, he moves fluidly between tenor saxophone, flute, oboe, and bassoon, joined by Richard Williams on trumpet, longtime collaborator Hugh Lawson on piano, Ernie Farrow on bass, and Lex Humphries on drums. This Verve Record Club pressing marks the album’s first proper reissue—and its first appearance on vinyl in over 50 years.
* Mastered from analog sources
