Finland, 1972, experimental big band / jazz fusion

Heikki Sarmanto Big Band – Everything Is It: Yeah, the experimental part is definitely the moments where structure breaks down but also the interspersed female vocals, as if she is a narrator to all these jazz tracks. The album art completes the idea of being inside an aviary with this woman, where she is the chief songbird. There are many narrow, twisting paths here, and they are all a joy to traverse.
