First time vinyl edition of the 2008 album by the much-missed Harry Beckett, a Barbados-born trumpet player who became a key figure in the UK and European jazz scene. “Beckett’s genius is that he is always true to himself, whoever he performs with. His effervescent, tumbling, improvised melodies never fail to lift the spirits. ‘The Modern Sound Of Harry Beckett’ is a magnificent sonic treat.” – The Guardian “Sherwood’s production style strikes a perfect balance here between sonic creativity and respectful restraint, and Beckett himself is brilliant, creating horn lines that weave and insinuate themselves through the grooves rather than riding on top of them. Established On-U Sound fans will find this to be an enjoyable curiosity; Harry Beckett fans may find it revelatory.” – All Music

Edited for vinyl release by Adrian Sherwood and cut by Frank Merritt at The Carvery. Printed inner with full liner notes. LP with printed inner sleeve.
