Gems of Irish fusion: Compilation album Buntus Rince to be released
Coming just over a year after the album Quare Groove Vol. 1 pulled back the lid on a hidden world of Irish funk music of the 1970s and ’80s, comes another compilation album from the same stable that puts the spotlight on the early jazz fusion and folk scene.
Buntús Rince: Explorations in Irish Jazz, Fusion & Folk captures an accelerated decade of musical innovation in Irish jazz in the 1970s where exponents of relatively conventional genre idioms released recordings around the same time as more progressive and fusion-oriented acts in a spectacular dam burst of styles and creativity.
