Horace Tapscott

• 2-LP 180 GRAM - GATEFOLD EDITION

• 4 STARS ALL MUSIC GUIDE

Flight 17 is the first recording of Horace Tapscott's the Pan-Afrikan People's Arkestra. The album is a delightful and life-affirming take on big band jazz. Experimental and effusive, with the sort of energy that might even bring round a 'jazz hater'.
