Smokin' Aces
Acid jazz founding figure Chris Bangs and former Style Council founding member Mick Talbot return with their new albumĀ Smokinā Aces. It follows their acclaimed 2022 duo-billed debut album Back To Business and two rapid sell-out 7ā singles āSumthinā Elseā and, most recently āK-Jeeā. Chris Bangs coined the term āacid jazzā and was a prominent figure on the early scene, before an extensive production and DJ career, alongside the likes of Yada Yada, Quiet Boys and Paul Weller. Mick Talbot is one of the UKās top keyboard players. After founding the Style Council with Weller, he went on to play with Merton Parkas, before embarking on a preeminent session career.
Smokinā Aces is an uplifting, contemporary fusion of genres and influence, distilling these sounds to create a timeless Acid Jazz album - āretrophonic but contemporary at the same timeā says Talbot. Recorded and developed over a 2-year spell, following the last album, the new record features 12 new tracks, with Bangs and Talbot joined by instrumentalists and voices from all over the world. Another important landmark in the careers of these two prolific artists, and the wider sounds of acid jazz.
