Groundbreaking work from Lloyd Miller -- an American jazzman, but one with a real ear for the exotic! Lloyd's probably best known for his collaborations overseas with Jef Gilson -- but as this set reveals, Miller's been making amazing music for years -- working in styles that blend together jazz elements with a host of world music influences -- all in very haunting and unusual ways! Miller himself plays oug, santur, piano, clarinet, bass, tabla, and a host of other percussion instruments -- and the recordings feature him in a variety of settings, including his 60s Oriental Jazz Quartet, and some rare TV work in Tehran! 20 tracks in all -- with titles that include "Kyoto Gardens", "Hue Wail", "Sakura", "Oud Blues", "Gole E Gandom", "Amber Eyes", "Cello A La Turque", "Perso Jazz Blend", and "Bhairava".1.
