He was known as an unorthodox presence in the 70's jazz crossover scene, and since the 90's, Mos Def and Q-TIP have led the way.
His existence was worshiped like a god, with hip-hop artists in NYC looking up to him and revering him as their mentor.
Legendary pianist/composer Weldon Irvin. This is his second solo album, and a monumental piece of rare 70's jazz.
Important songs from “Time Capsule” are cut on the 10-inch disc!
An analog cut of the important songs from "Time Capsule", which is said to be Weldon's masterpiece, on a 10-inch EP!
On the A side, the ultimate rare groove classic that also covered Nobukazu Takemura's project SPIRITUAL VIBES,
Contains two versions of "Deja Vu": the original version and the short version.
Weldon's philosophical, electric piano and tricky solo performances are reminiscent of outer space.
It synchronizes perfectly with the introspective lyrics and simple vocals. Although it's a pretty crazy song,
The exquisite balance is genius, and it is by far the most popular song among his works.
In addition, the short version only for this time leaves the vocals, electric piano solo, and drum break.
Edited to about 5 minutes for a more DJ-friendly finish. A special download code will be included here.
B1's "Feelin' Mellow" is a high-quality soul number co-written and performed with Johnny King of FATBACK BAND.
It's a heart-warming song throughout, and it's not the eccentric side of Weldon, who was in charge of writing the lyrics.
A masterpiece that reflects feelings of calm and love. B2's "Watergate---Don't Bug Me!" is over 7 minutes long
With freaky funk, Weldon plays the melodica like crazy, and as the second half progresses,
It's a jam session-like song that gets more intense. Nina Simone since the late 60's
Although he was active as an exclusive pianist and later rose to prominence in the NYC jazz scene,
Due to its avant-garde creation, "Time Capsule" was forced to be produced independently while borrowing money.
After that, he left three masterpieces in the majors, but he is known as the other side and a symbol of heresy.
The original world of this album is like a 70's alternative like CAN or Velvet Underground.
A one-and-only work with a hidden dangerousness reminiscent of the same avant-garde scent.
Among them, "Deja Vu" and "Feelin' Mellow", which caused him to re-evaluate.
Don't miss out on the 10-inch version of "Watergate---Don't Bug Me!"!
