January will see Ogun kick off its 2012 release schedule with the second recording from the Blue Notes 1979 tour of Belgium and Holland, taken from tour organiser Rob Sotemann s tape archive. Whereas the critically acclaimed first volume from this archive, Spiritual Knowledge And Grace (OGCD035) featured an impromptu collaboration between Blue Notes members Louis Moholo-Moholo, Dudu Pukwana & Johnny Dyani and American tenor sax powerhouse Frank Wright

Before The Wind Changes focuses on the established quartet line-up with Chris McGregor at the piano and features an incendiary performance from Waregem. The Blue Notes of course is a key band in UK and South African jazz history, and one in whom there is continual interest. This first release of a storming live set is a major event for all followers of the band. Interest in them has heightened through a growing number of related releases (particularly the Chris McGregor titles put out recently by Fledg'ling).
