Shihab, Ibrahim Khalil -quintet- Ft. Mankuku

Spring

South Africa's lost jazz history contains many an overlooked classic. But even within that hidden tradition, there are few albums that suffered such an unlucky fate as 'Spring', the monumental debut album by pianist Ibrahim Khalil Shihab, formerly Chris Schilder. Though Shihab was only twenty-two when 'Spring' was recorded, he was already a lynchpin of the Cape Town scene, and the album was to be his first major statement as leader and composer. It is a magnum opus gilded by the presence of the upcoming saxophonist Winston "Mankunku" Ngozi, who was soon to find huge acclaim with the hit album 'Yakhal' Inkomo'. Recorded on November 22nd 1968 at the Herrick Studios, Johannesburg. Originally released in 1969.
