Freedom, Rhythm and Sound - Revolutionary Jazz Cover Art 1960-1978
Compiled by Gilles Peterson & Stuart Baker
(192 pages Hardcover Book) Soul Jazz Records Publishing, 2009-10-31
The momentum of the 1960s civil rights movement and the explosion of Rock music and the underground press in that decade impacted Jazz in amazing ways, both musically and culturally. The record sleeves of this era (roughly 1965-1979) are as iconic and historically unique as the music itself, which, in the wake of innovations by Ornette Coleman and Cecil Taylor, boldly abandoned tonal anchors for the wilder shores of improvisation, incorporating Gospel, Asian, Rock and electronic influences. Soul Jazz Records has issued many releases relating to this music, and Freedom, Rhythm and Sound is the first ever collection of this fascinating goldmine of album art, which represents the first wave of inspired independent production within popular music.

Various - Gilles Peterson Presents Brazilika
Explorations Deep Inside the Vaults - 15th Anniversary Celebration - Far Out Recordings 1994-2009
(CD/LP) Far Out Recordings FARO142CD/FARO142LP, 2009-07-13
World renowned BBC Radio 1 DJ Gilles Peterson compiles a spectacular collage mix tape from the vaults of Far Out Recordings for this fifteenth anniversary celebration. A close friend to Joe Davis for 25 years, Gilles Peterson has been a constant supporter of the original and best UK based Brazilian record label. The pair released the original "Brazilika" compilation on Gilles' Talking Loud label 15 years ago and now go full circle with the fourth installment in Far Out's series, following block party mixes from Kenny Dope, 4 Hero and Andy Votel. Brazilian music aficionados Peterson and Davis introduced a new generation to the cream of Brazil's bossa and post-bossa artists and here expertly blend the cream of the timeless with the new breed from Far Out's vast catalogue. Gilles Peterson's "Brazilika" includes five exclusive unreleased tracks and is the definitive collection of Far Out's work, taking us on a breathless ride through a beautiful, barmy Brazil.
