Original LP issue: International Polydor Production – 46.871. This self-titled album is a testimony of the short lived-band led by New-York drummer Ron Jefferson during his stay in Paris in the mid-60s. After a first album under his name on Pacific Jazz in 1962, the founding member of The Jazz Modes and the Les McCann trio made the trip overseas. Here, he made his living by playing with the popular pianists Errol Parker or Hazel Scott but his main drive was this trio that he formed with two other US expats, bassist Roland Haynes (the same musician who recorded an album on Black Jazz as a pianist, as confirmed by Kirk Lightsey) and guitarist Buz Saviano. After a highly successful show at ‘Palais de Chaillot’ in 1965, they were invited for a series of concerts in Dakar Sénégal. On their return, Polydor International proposed them this session. You can hear the deep impact their stay in the Motherland had on their music on the stand-out track ‘Africa the Beautiful’. On pair with the best of Yusef Lateef’s afro-eastern explorations from the time, it showcases Ron on flute and Senegalese percussion. The album release nonetheless was a commercial failure that prompted the band’s separation and Ron’s return to New-York where he performed until his passing in 2007. Only a few copies of this record ever made it to the shops at the time and very few have had the chance to listen to it before this legit reissue remastered from the original MONO master tapes. – Antoine Rajon – Artist Ron Jefferson Genre Jazz Label Sam Records Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country France Track Listings Side A: The Speaker (Ron Jefferson) 6’26 Africa The Beautiful(Ron Jefferson) 15’55 Fu Yu (Ron Jefferson) 4’26 Side B: Every Little Bit Helps (Ron Jefferson) 24’02 Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jazz View Product Quick View Lou Donaldson Midnight Creeper (Tone Poet) Jazz | Blue Note Tone Poet | 180g, 1LP Released 5th January 2024 £36.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lou Donaldson Midnight Creeper (Tone Poet) £36.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Blue Note Tone Poet SKU: 4526225 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 5th January 2024 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View John Coltrane Coltrane’s Sound (Atlantic 75 Series) (SACD) Jazz | Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) | SACD Released 25th December 2025 £45.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders John Coltrane Coltrane’s Sound (Atlantic 75 Series) (SACD) £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) SKU: CAPA 040 SA Formats: SACD Released Date: 25th December 2025 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Herbie Hancock Gershwin’s World Jazz | Universal Play 33 1/3 Series | 180g, 2LP Released 29th June 2015 £40.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Herbie Hancock Gershwin’s World £40.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Universal Play 33 1/3 Series SKU: LP43024 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 29th June 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Modern Jazz Quartet October 28, 1957 NDR Studio Hanover Jazz | Moosicus Records | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 27th January 2014 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Modern Jazz Quartet October 28, 1957 NDR Studio Hanover £23.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Moosicus Records SKU: N13041 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 27th January 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Sonny Rollins On Impulse Jazz | Impulse | 1LP Released 23rd August 2019 £22.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Sonny Rollins On Impulse £22.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Impulse SKU: 7757383 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd August 2019 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket View Product Quick View John Coltrane Giant Steps (Atlantic 75 Series) (SACD) Jazz | Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) | SACD Released 25th December 2025 £45.00 Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders John Coltrane Giant Steps (Atlantic 75 Series) (SACD) £45.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Analogue Productions (Atlantic 75 Series) SKU: CAPA 010 SA Formats: SACD Released Date: 25th December 2025 Read More Pre Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Soft Machine Fifth Jazz | Music On Vinyl | 180g, 1LP Released 13th May 2016 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Soft Machine Fifth £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Music On Vinyl SKU: MOVLP1599 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 13th May 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Dexter Gordon Go Jazz | Universal/Blue Note | 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 19th June 2014 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Dexter Gordon Go £20.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Universal/Blue Note SKU: 3778212 Formats: 180g, 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 19th June 2014 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Gogo Penguin Man Made Object Electronica | Blue Note | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 5th February 2016 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Gogo Penguin Man Made Object £22.00 Genre: Electronica Label: Blue Note SKU: 4768203 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 5th February 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Champion Jack Dupreee Blues From The Gutter Jazz | Pure Pleasure | 180g, 1LP Released 11th August 2015 £34.00 Add to basket Reserve View Reservations Champion Jack Dupreee Blues From The Gutter £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Pure Pleasure SKU: PPANSD8019 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 11th August 2015 Reserve View Reservations Read More Add to basket See more in Jazz Start again
