Manu Katché - Neighbourhood

Good, acoustic jazz funk featuring Manu Katché on drums with Jan Garbarek, Tomasz Stanko and Tomasz Stanko's rhythm section. It doesn't really swing, at least not in the conventional sense, and I'm just not sure about Jan Garbarek - his tone just brings back memories of gregorian chant classicfm jazz. Favourite tracks are "November 99", lovely bass theme and "Take Off and Land".

Ah, it appears he's a rock drummer who's played with Sting and Peter Gabriel, that would explain the lack of swing.

I've also been listening to the new album from Loka, not amazing but kind of electric Miles meets The Cinematic Orchestra
