EPIC IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT. Kamasi Washington's debut album for Brainfeeder is a mind - blower. Spanning three LPs and over 170 minutes, it's composed for a 10 - piece band, a 32 - piece orchestra, and a 20 - person choir. The young saxophonist, well - known in the L.A. scene from recordings with Flying Lotus, Kendrick Lamar, and others, finally drops his full - length debut. Kamasi and his band 'The Next Step' have honed their skills for years, and it shows in this amazing new jazz. The album aims to revitalize jazz, breaking it from the relic shelf. The sound is like flames, sometimes cozy like a fireplace, other times powerful like a backdraft, but Kamasi always in control. It comes as a black triple vinyl in a deluxe outer slipcase from Brainfeeder in 2015. Highly recommended.

To enjoy this Kamasi Washington vinyl album, first, carefully remove it from the deluxe outer slipcase. Place the vinyl gently on your turntable and set the tonearm to start the music. Make sure your turntable is clean and in good working condition for the best sound quality. When not in use, put the vinyl back in its slipcase to protect it from dust and scratches. Store it in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Avoid touching the playing surface of the vinyl with your fingers to prevent fingerprints and dirt that can affect the sound. With proper care, this amazing album will provide you with many hours of great jazz music.
