"For more than 30 years, the Igloo label has been concentrating a genuine history of Belgian jazz in its catalogue, and still plays a role in discovering talent.
The Jazz Classics series that has just been released provides a yardstick for the impact of recordings that have become impossible to find, with new sleeves and archive photos.
Listen IGLOO Jazz Classics playlist here.
9 recordings are already available at low price:
The trio that brought together Chet Baker, Philip Catherine and Jean-Louis Rassinfosse set stages alight for years, and was one of the jewels in the label’s crown. «Never Let me Go» from the sax and flute player Jacques Pelzer accompanied by the young Eric Legnini, as well as Michel Graillier and the American tenor Barney Wilen.
Three albums from guitarists - «Oscar» by Philip Catherine, «London Baby» by Serge Lazarevitch and «Storie Vere» by Paolo Radoni - complete what is just a first series of pearls from Igloo.
...Indispensable!"
