Description
When pianist Mike Taylor recorded the album “Trio” with two British jazz-rock greats in 1967, he was working in parallel as a songwriter with Ginger Baker for the super rock band Cream. The adventurous album, which is now being reissued on vinyl by Decca in the historic “British Jazz Explosion” series, offers “cutting-edge British piano trio music from the 1960s”, according to Guardian jazz critic John Fordham.
Decca is reissuing two albums by Mike Taylor on vinyl in 2025 for the first time since their original release. The recordings have been remastered from the original analog tape and pressed on 180g vinyl, as well as featuring a detailed accompanying booklet in which British jazz expert Tony Higgins discusses the music and the artist’s life.
These reissues were remastered at Gearbox Studios in London using the original tapes (or high-resolution digital source files taken from the original tapes), which were transferred to a Studer tape machine and then mastered using an analog mastering console.
