Bennie Maupin - The Jewel In The Lotus (1974)
Bennie Maupin - The Jewel In The Lotus (1974) ECM
Bennie Maupin first caught my ear on The Headhunters - Survival of the Fittest playing bass clarinet....later discovering that he was the bass clarinet on Miles - Bitches Brew. He was born in Detroit and was heavily influenced by Yusef Lateef and Eric Dolphy.
Bennie Maupin: reeds, voice, glockenspiel; Herbie Hancock: piano, electric piano; Buster Williams: bass; Frederick Waits: drums and marimba (left channel); Billy Hart: drums (right channel); Bill Summers: percussion, water-filled garbage can; Charles Sullivan: trumpet.
This album has a very interesting feel, especially because of the the way Billy and Frederick are panned hard left and right in the mix. Experimental ideas that display very artistic adventures. Overall this record takes me to the place I need to be.
