    Poetry meets deeo modal British jazz!

    Double CD that contains the glorious 1964 Argo double album Poetry and Jazz in Concert. The Michael Garrick Quintet featuring Shake Keane and Joe Harriott provides the jazz while the mercurial, witty minds and tongues of Jeremy Robson, Dannie Abse, Laurie Lee and Adrian Mitchell provide the poetry. Also included is the rare 1966 Argo EP Before Night/Day by the Michael Garrick Quintet with Jeremy Robson. Issued in stereo for the first time, it focuses on further explorations into the fascinating marriage of jazz with poetry.
