Luis Vecchio
COSMIC JAZZ FROM THE CANARY ISLANDS.
After a few years in London, where he worked with Archie Shepp and recorded a sought-after album for the famed library music label de Wolfe, Argentinian pianist Luis Vecchio settled in the island of Gran Canaria following advice from a superior entity from outer space. Vecchio subsequently opened the first jazz school in the Canary Islands, effectively planting the seed of jazz in the archipelago.
In Contactos, recorded in 1978 in the Mayra studio owned by Ramiro Gonzalez, Vecchio gives a free jazz account of his contacts with Adionesis, who delivers his ominous message upon the human race on side B of the album. Fellow Argentinean Fernando Bermudez on percussion and Japanese bass player Yoichi Yahiro complete the line-up of Contactos.
