Bleep

The Transgressive label dusts off a crown jewel of jazz-folk with this reissue of Beverly Glenn-Copeland’s eponymously titled debut recording. Originally issued solely as radio promotional material for the CBC, Beverly Copeland sets the stage for Copeland’s lengthy and influential career, establishing the building blocks for his brand of sighing, emotional jazz. Tracks like the sorrowful ‘Nothing Beautiful’ and the hopeful ‘Durocher’ show off Copeland’s range, creating a strange, but beautiful alchemy in their sequencing.
