VA - BBE Staff Selections 2018 (2018)

BBE Music presents a packed new edition of their 'Staff Selections' series, a yearly collection of musical highlights, chosen by the label team themselves.
It's been another fast and, at times, furious twelve months in the BBE office, not least because of one special project: painstakingly restoring a long lost collection of Charles Mingus concert tapes. All that hard work finally bore fruit in early November, with an album that represents a huge milestone on our musical journey. But Mingus is just one chapter in BBE's jazz story this year. 2018 saw two more classic Strata reissues from The Lyman Woodard Organization and The Contemporary Jazz Quintet, plus trailblazing compilation J-Jazz, which led on to an exciting new 'J Jazz Masterclass' album reissue series, shedding new light on forgotten Japanese gems. Our exploration of rare library music also continued with 'Catchy' and 'Duck & Drakes', two unique experimental LPs by 1970s French producer Yan Tregger, both sporting stunning original artwork. In addition to a wide-ranging selection of reissues and compilations, this year has been a special one for original releases, too. Original artist albums from Beatchild & The Slakadeliqs, The Herbaliser, Gabriele Poso, Vince Watson (under his new 'Quart' alias), Will Brock & Sumsuch and Jerome Sydenham rubbed shoulders with singles, EPs and remixes from Emilie Nana, Ron Trent & Lono Brazil, Ben Rau, Mike City, The James L'Estraunge Orchestra, Tricky D and Kiko Navarro. We hope you enjoy this retrospective selection, taking a moment to look back over the year that was and enjoy the view. It's been a joy to present so many varied and beautiful sounds over the last twelve months, and we'd like to thank you, most sincerely, for listening.
