after retiring from the jamaican police force arthur duke reid established his treasure isle liquor store and sound system in pink lane kingston and was crowned the undisputed king of sound and blues in 1956, 57 and in 58. the duke then moved into record production and after relocating the store to 33 bond street, he then built a recording studio on top of his new premises in 1966. according to the musicians and singers the wooden construction of the treasure isle recording studio gave the music a distinctive warmth and richness and with resident engineer byron baron/smithy smith at the controls, the sound of a bond street recording was immediately recognisable.

mit neneh cherry hŠtte wohl kaum noch jemand gerechnet. erst recht nicht damit, dass die stimme von 7 seconds an der seite eines free-jazz-trios suicide covert. zwischen neneh cherry und the thing hat es offenbar gefunkt. vor zwei jahren trafen die prominente sŠngerin und das radikale free-jazz-trio erstmals zusammen, nun haben sie gemeinsam ein album eingespielt. angesichts der hits von neneh cherry, die sich zwischen hiphop, soul und ethno bewegten, mutet ihr comeback-projekt abwegig an. betrachtet man jedoch die familiŠren hintergrŸnde, liegt die kollaboration eigentlich auf der hand: neneh cherry ist die tochter des jazzmusikers don cherry, der the thing mit einem seiner stŸcke zu ihrem namen inspiriert hat. der renommierte schwedische saxophonist mats gustafsson und das norwegische rhythmus-duo ingebrigt hŒker flaten und paal nilssen-love transzendieren das spektrum herkšmmlicher jazz-trios. neben einem cover von don cherry finden sich darauf songs von the stooges, mf doom, martina topley-bird und ornette coleman. wenn nicht alles tŠuscht, steht mit diesem album die †berraschung des jahres ins haus.(78sfm)
