ANDY THOMAS SEVEN UPDATE This is the latest in a brilliant series of albums documenting East European jazz from the seventies and eighties. Following the excellent 'Balkan Express', compiler Zeljko Kerleta focuses on the music of Bulgaria, and trust me the words rare and gem are more than appropriate. From the haunting spiritual jazz of Vesselin Nikolov's 'Hallelujah', to the flute driven Latin of Jazz Quartet's 'Samba', to the spacey fusion of Simeon Shterev's 'Sunbeam' this is an album of truly cosmic sounds from the East side.
