Jazz Is Dead 021 is a celebration of legendary artists and their timeless sounds, pressed on vibrant red vinyl. Produced by label founders Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, this series transports listeners from the funky rhythms of Ghana to the psychedelic soul and samba of Brazil. The collection features new, all-analog recordings from iconic musicians like Ebo Taylor, Dom Salvador, Hyldon, and more, offering a fresh take on their influential styles  At 88, Ebo Taylor recorded a powerful afrobeat album, one of his most seminal works of the 1970s. Meanwhile, Brazilian masters like Carlos Dafe, Dom Salvador, and Hyldon return to their roots, blending jazz, funk, and samba with Younge and Muhammad's modern sensibilities. The dynamic duo Antonio Carlos e Jocafi, along with Joyce and Tutty Moreno, also contribute rich, anthemic albums that resonate with their classic sounds. Come celebrate the legends and their enduring impact with this stunning edition.
