Released in 1969, the Joe Harriott-Amancio D’Silva Quartet’s Hum Dono album represents a startling blend of Indian, Caribbean and Western influences and in the 21st century sounds as fresh and as contemporary as it did the day it was recorded. Harriott, a pioneer of the free-jazz movement of the 1960s, has a string of classic albums to his name; D’Silva was among the most adventurous jazz guitarists of his generation, having recorded in a variety of styles and with such albums as Integration, Cosmic Eye and Konkan Dance to his credit. On Hum Dono, the two leaders are accompanied by a stellar line-up comprising Ian Carr (flugelhorn), Bryan Spring (drums), Dave Green (bass) and the inimitable Norma Winstone (vocals). Together, these remarkable musicians create inspired, forward-looking jazz throughout the album’s six titles, leaving us in no doubt as to why Hum Dono is so highly regarded.
