    **A compilation of Australian, modern jazz from 1969-1979!**

    'Pyramid Pieces' showcases this period and the various forms of modern jazz indicative of the 'scene'; from modal and deep spiritual jazz through to avant-jazz film soundtracks and the unique sub-genre 'Eco Jazz' (a distinctive style which drew vivid inspiration from Australia's natural environment). Featuring essential tracks from celebrated Australian jazz icons such as John Sangster and Alan Lee, the collection also asserts the importance of other often overlooked groups including Jazz Co/op and The Brian Brown Quintet amongst others.
