The experimentation taking shape in jazz at the end of the 60s, with Miles Davis leading the pack, pushed the music in many new directions. Released six months after Bitches Brew, Electric Byrd shows that legendary Detroit hard-bop trumpeter Donald Byrd was listening, but not simply following. Backed by a diverse group including Brazilians Airto Moreira and Hermeto Pascoal, shimmering percussion, winds, electric piano, and guitar set the backdrop for Byrd's dramatic flight into psychedelic space with his echo-laden trumpet. The album closes on a rollicking funk that foreshadows the gold he would soon mine with the Mizell Brothers, a perfect glimpse of an artist in transition. Third Man's 313 Series all-analog reissue.
