Emergency! (Verve By Request Series)

Double 180gm vinyl LP pressing. In what many consider to be the birth of jazz fusion, Emergency!, led by Tony Williams (drums) with bandmates John McLaughlin (guitar) and Larry Young (organ), is a true adventure in the beginning of the jazz-rock blend that would take shape in late 1960's and beyond. From the opening title track, the direction is decisive and commands attention as Williams leads his crew through a mixture of swing, rock and free jazz that cements it's place as one of the most influential albums of the time. The Verve By Request Series 2 LP set features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
