First Meeting is the debut and only album by British jazz-rock outfit Trifle, originally released in 1971. Blending progressive rock with innovative brass arrangements, the band—featuring George Bean, Patrick "Speedy" King, Barry Martin, John Pritchard, and Rod Coombes—crafted a sound that stands out for its fusion of styles and instrumental sophistication. This album captures a unique moment in early '70s British music, offering a fresh take on both jazz and rock traditions.
This reissue from Music On Vinyl faithfully brings back the original recording's rich dynamic range and clarity, allowing listeners to experience the detailed musicianship and genre-blurring energy of Trifle as intended. A must-hear for fans of early progressive rock and brass-driven jazz, First Meeting remains a testament to Trifle’s creative vision and the adventurous spirit of its era.
