Kamasi Washington: The Epic versión en vinilo 3LP/Caja en estándar edición. Esta edición en concreto se lanzó en Europa y Estados Unidos en la editorial Brainfeeder el día 17. diciembre 2021.

The beginning of May heralds one of the most exciting jazz releases of the year: thirty-four-year-old jazz great and composer Kamasi Washington releases his debut album "The Epic" on Brainfeeder / Ninja Tune. This release on the Flying Lotus label is epic in every way: a 172-minute set consisting of three volumes, including a 32-piece orchestra, a 20-piece choir and Washington's long-running band projects The Next Step and West Coast Get Down. Kamasi Washington has worked with artists such as Lauryn Hill, Snoop Dogg and Herbie Hancock and is considered one of the most talented jazz musicians with a worldwide reputation. "He just plays the craziest shit. I mean everything - past, present and future. What I hear is a leader among artists." Says Flying Lotus, whose direct lineage is linked to Washington's musical ancestor John Coltrane. A review of "It's Jazz! American saxophonist Kamasi Washington delivers perhaps the most relevant and radical album of the year with his three-hour debut, 'The Epic'." - (Spiegel Online 05/15, 10.0 points) "Kamasi Washington's truly epic debut album 'The Epic', which stretches across three vinyl/CDs and, at 172 minutes, is as long as 'The Godfather', is a milestone on the way to making Brainfeeder as important a label as Def Jam in the eighties or Impulse in the sixties." (Spiegel Online 05/15, 10.0 points) "In three parts, a saga emerges that teems with swing and groove, that rolls and rushes with modal virtuosity and lusty freedom, mixing the soulful vocals and arrangements of the biggest bands, referencing novelty and lounge, and implementing all sorts of fusion ideas. (...) Washington's massive sound shines out of this Afrofuturist journey - a lot Coltrane, more Pharoah Sanders, lighter than David S. Ware. (...) Fantastic album!" (Rolling Stone 05/15)
