Disco Jazz (Sun Sugar Vinyl)

Our Record of the Month for November is Rupa – ‘Disco Jazz’. Originally released in 1982, this particular reissue is pressed on to stunning sun sugar marbled vinyl. Taken from the sleeve notes, the description below gives the perfect image of what to expect from this timeless classic.

‘Barely disco and hardly jazz, Rupa Biswas’ 1982 LP is the halfway point between Bollywood and Balearic. Tracked in Calgary’s Living Room Studios with a crack of team of Indian and Canadian studio rats alike, Disco Jazz is a perfect fusion of East and West. Sarod and synthesizer intricately weave around one another for 37 transcendent minutes, culminating in the viral hit ‘Aaj Shanibar’. Remastered from original analogue source material and issued with permission and blessing of the producers and performers.’
