Larry Douglas Alltet - Dedications

1LP Vinyl - TWM75

His debut solo album Dedications, which we are proudly presenting you today, was released in 1985 as a tribute to his son and the boy’s two aunts. Dedications received tremendous response all over the globe and two tracks from the album were even sampled by Madlib in 2010. Also featured on these recordings are some serious all-star guest musicians from the likes of Ronald Wilson (Sun Ra Arkestra) and Jimmy Lewis (Horace Silver, Idris Muhammad).

If you enjoy high-energy electric fusion, strong percussions, straight-up traditional acoustic jazz, vibrant horns, plenty of soul-funk-latin influences and frenetic pulsating rhythms…then this is a highly recommended gem for your record collection (and a must-have for seekers of rare grooves). Whether playing trumpet or trombone, Mr. Douglas is the master of his craft and Dedications will satisfy even the most demanding listeners. By the end of the album you are simply left wanting MORE. It’s musicians like Larry Douglas who truly keep the flame of jazz burning bright.
