New release Sept 18th - Phil Seamen Vol. 2

Yep, more of the same – because it's all different!

Catalogue number SWP 074: cd and digital release. Fifty-nine varieties, or forty-nine varieties? Phil didn't really care, as he had so many variations and natural escapes when at his drumkit, that mere numbers had become obsolete. Which is exactly why, after having released the cd SWP 037 'The Late Great Phil Seamen' in 2009, with highlights of his playing from between 1954 and 1971, we have now released another compilation with more highlights of his playing: 'Volume 2'. Yep, more of the same – because it's all different!

Every track wonderfully remastered (by the wonderful Zlaya Hadzic), and comes with a 24-page booklet bristling with all kinds of relevant info, personal insights, and historical photos. Highlights from between 1955 & 1972, with Kenny Graham, Don Carlos, Georgie Fame, Victor Feldman, Stan Tracey, Joe Harriott, Tubby Hayes, Jack Constanzo, Harold McNair.
