Mix: The Hedonist – Best of Strata East Records (Part 1 & 2)

Michael Linney of Hedonist Jazz Radio Show put together two superb selections of tracks from the highly revered Strata -East record label. As he mentions, the label is often considered to be a holy grail for some of the best rare jazz ever released.

Original vinyl pressings from the Strata-East catalogue are highly sought after and are truly gems of 70s jazz music. This show by The Hedonist is an excellent selection of some of the best Strata-East has to offer and really shows why so many crate diggers are crazy about the label. If this is an introduction to Strata-East for you, then be sure to look through their releases and keep an eye out for any originals or reissues next time you hit a record store.
