Connexions 2014: The Gramophone Allstars Big Band

The Gramophone Allstars's fourth album, 'Jazzmaica' (2014), has the band finding that meeting point between 1960s African-American music and Jamaican rhythms. The group, which has grown to a big band format, explores and rewrites the path taken decades earlier by musicians from the Caribbean island discovered by US broadcasters of soul, funk and R&B.
