Hailing from Knoxville, Tennessee, Joel Fairstein established himself as a talented jazz pianist, composer, producer, and studio musician with his debut album Umbra. Recorded at just 24 years old alongside eighteen sidemen, this 1978 private label release blends jazz, funk, and fusion into a bold and distinctive sound that earned Fairstein critical praise and a devoted following among collectors.
Mad About Records brings this rare jazz funk fusion gem back to life with a 2021 reissue transferred directly from the original master tapes, ensuring the highest possible audio fidelity. The release also includes an OBI strip as well as an insert featuring an interview and exclusive photos, making it a rewarding find for fans of late-70s jazz and fusion music.
