Robert Rockwell III – Androids

Saxophonist Robert Rockwell III released his début album »Androids« in 1974: Jazz with its fingers on the pulse of the times, a little funky, a little free, a spiritual note, hard bop as a foundation. All the musicians are from Minneapolis, Minnesota. With Bobby Lyle on piano and electric piano, he is also a real heavyweight, who later played with Pharoah Sanders, Gábor Szabó and Sly & The Family Stone. Bassist Billy Peterson has also made his mark on music history as a member of the Steve Miller Band. Not a groundbreaking, but an ambitious and surprisingly well-rounded début, which will be re-released in 2023 for the first time in almost 40 years.
