Jazzman

Jazzman Records is a UK label that was established in 1998 by Gerald Short, a dealer in rare funk and jazz LPs and 45s. With a mission to re-release the best and most obscure tracks from the late '60s and early '70s, Jazzman Records aims to bring back the long-forgotten sound that didn't receive recognition during that time period.
Since its inception, Jazzman Records has been dedicated to unearthing hidden gems of jazz and funk music, showcasing both well-known artists as well as more obscure talents. The label's releases span across various formats including vinyl records, CDs, and digital downloads.
With their extensive catalog of *artists* and *performers*, Jazzman Records continues to be at the forefront of preserving and promoting this unique genre of music. Whether you're a seasoned collector or new to the world of jazz and funk, Jazzman Records offers an unparalleled selection for all enthusiasts.

For every celebrated name in jazz, soul and related music, there are probably another 1000 musicians who had all the talent and potential but for whom widespread recognition remained elusive. Roscoe Weathers is one such figure, a jazzman who earned his chops the hard way, a sideman in smoky clubs from Memphis to Seattle, before finally settling in LA. He recorded a significant amount of music through the 1960s, but never found the slightest modicum of commercial acclaim nor the success that comes with it.

Overlooked by all but the tiniest of record labels, Weathers' released much of his material himself. Indeed, Jazzman can lay claim to be the first outside label to release any of his music since the early 1960s. That's sixty years of being overlooked by the record industry, so they are delighted to release this first full length album of his music in a first attempt at righting that historic wrong.

A multi-instrumentalist, Weathers mainly led on the flute in his recorded output. The music here spans the course of the 1960s, and moves from laid back beatnik jazz stylings through to percussion heavy Afro-Latin influenced workouts. As usual with Jazzman, they have not only dug deep to unearth Weathers' music but also his background and biographical details, shining much deserved light on this enigmatic and largely unheralded figure for the first time.
