Sought after for the African influenced Kalahari Suite \u003ci\u003eHarlem\u003c\/i\u003e is actually 8 tracks of brilliance that sees the veteran performer lead a local band through their paces. A perfect example of America meets Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Juan Amalbert he had led the in-demand Latin Jazz Quintet who recorded for Prestige and United Artists in the early 60s, including Caribé which featured Eric Dolphy. In 1966 he was asked to appear with John Coltrane’s group at the performances that produced the album \u003ci\u003eLive At The Village Vanguard Again\u003c\/i\u003e. Soon after Amalbert recorded another album which this time featured Pharoah Sanders in the horn line-up. All that appeared at the time was a single on Golden Earth Records, but the album was later released as \u003ci\u003eOh! Pharoah Speaks \u003c\/i\u003ein the wake of Sanders solo success.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe then made the soulful 45 'When You Lose You Groove' b\/w 'The Knower' and the spiritual jazz classic 'Total Submission' for Cobblestone, which featured the updated version of 'The Knower' called 'Al-Alim' which we included on Jazz On The Corner 2. After that like so many American jazzmen he packed his bags and headed to Europe to carry on his career, which is where, in 1988 he recorded 'Harlem'.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcid Jazz is happy to officially re-issue this album on vinyl for the first time since its initial release, with full co-operation of Rahim's estate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Acid Jazz","offers":[{"title":"Black | LP","offer_id":50459363213643,"sku":"1132859","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/4625fa60-d534-4ddb-ac09-63953d34a32d_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727220847","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/harlem","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
