Caprice RIKS-LP-31 Sweden 1972
Sleeve : Excellent
  Vinyl : Excellent

Muvaffak "Maffy" Falay is a Turkish trumpeter. Born in 1930 in Kusadasi, he studied trumpet and piano in Ankara Conservatory. In 1960 he entered the radio orchestra under the conduction of Kurt Edelhagen, in Köln. Then he toured Europe as a member of the Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland Big Band and played on six of the band's albums. He has played in orchestras led by Benny Bailey, Åke Persson, Phil Woods, Sixten Eriksson and Quincy Jones. In 1965 he decided to move to Sweden where he was playing for the radio jazz orchestra, and touring around the Americas at the same time. In 1970 he started playing in the Dizzy Gillespie Reunion Orchestra. He has also played with Dexter Gordon, Stan Getz, and Elvin Jones. In 1971 he formed the band Sevda, featuring Bernt Rosengren, Okay Temiz, Akay Temiz, Gunnar Bergsten, Ove Gustafsson and Salih Baysal.

Maffy Falay / Sevda - “Jazz I Sverige ‘72” is a unique fusion of Turkish music and Swedish jazz, which grooves naturally in exotic time signatures (like 7/8 and 9/4), blending textures, rhythms and swinging improvisations into an exciting whole. It was recorded live at a TV studio, and at the time nobody had any idea it would be issued as a record. On drums is the great Okay Temiz, who also played with Don Cherry for some time.
