Our Take

In a world filled with mundane music, ART ENSEMBLE OF CHICAGO's latest offering, Message To Our Folks (Green Marbled Vinyl), stands out like a sore thumb - in the best way possible. This avant-garde jazz collective has been pushing boundaries since the 1960s, and this album is no exception.

From the moment the needle hits the green marbled vinyl, you are transported to a musical wonderland filled with unexpected twists and turns. The band effortlessly blends free jazz, African rhythms, and experimental sounds to create a truly unique listening experience. It's like taking a psychedelic trip through the history of jazz music, and I'm here for it.

Each track on this album is a mini adventure, with the musicians' improvisation skills on full display. You never quite know where the music is going to take you next, but that's part of the magic. It's like a musical Choose Your Own Adventure book, with each note leading you down a different path.

Message To Our Folks is a reminder of the power of music to transport us to another world. So pour yourself a cup of tea, sit back, and let the ART ENSEMBLE OF CHICAGO take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Grab your copy of this album on green marbled vinyl, because trust me, you'll want to treasure this piece of musical history.
