Second Wave Remastered edition

This 1975 album is one of a kind in lots of

ways. First, it's keyboardist Roland Haynes'

only album. But more importantly, Second

Wave has a sound--and line-up--unlike pretty

much any other jazz fusion album to come

out before or since. Anchored by a fantastic

rhythm section of Carl Burnett (Cal Tjader,

Vince Guaraldi and most notably Gene Harris

and The Three Sounds) and Henry "The

Skipper" Franklin (leader on a couple of Black

Jazz titles still to come, plus Ornette Coleman,

Don Cherry, Hugh Masekela, and many others), the album

features dueling Fender Rhodes tickled by Haynes and Kirk Lightsey, who played with

everyone from Chet Baker to Pharoah Sanders to Sonny Stitt, not to mention a bunch of

Black Jazz dates. The cascading sound of the two electric pianos, one (Lightsey's) often

driven through a wah-wah pedal, gives Second Wave a special vibe all its own; there are

not horns or guitars getting in the way of these mindblowing keyboard jams. Some folks

might hear a little '70s-era Miles Davis when Joe Zawinul, Chick Corea, Keith Jarrett and/

or Herbie Hancock were in the band, and Hancock's own Head Hunters album comes

to mind (as well later fusion dudes like Jan Hammer and Bill Bruford), but Second Wave

is sui generis. Our Real Gone reissue is remastered for CD and vinyl by Mike Milchner

at Sonic Vision, with LP lacquer cutting by Clint Holley and Dave Polster at Well Made

Music, and features new liner notes by Pat Thomas, author of Listen, Whitey! The Sights

and Sounds of Black Power 1965-1975, that include a couple of quotes from drummer

Burnett and bassist Franklin. First ever time reissued on vinyl!
