Marcus Taylor, long-term collaborator of Ben Bell, has released his third Kashgar album. Apart from Marcus himself, the band also features James Chapman on drums and Ben on hammond, with guest appearances from Raphael Weinroth-Browne (cello) and Jassmaan Rathore (vocals).
It is currently available digitally on Bandcamp.
Kashgar III has been described as “Carlos Santana jamming with Jesse Cook in John McLaughlin’s favourite curry house”. With guest appearances by progressive cello virtuoso Raphael Weinroth-Browne and Indo-Jazz singer supreme Jaasmaan Rathore, the Kashgar sound hits another level. The melodies are instantly catchy while being decorated with fine musicianship and solo virtuosity. Kashgar III makes for perfect nighttime deep listening and is the ideal album for your next road trip.
