Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Hum Dono' brought together alto saxophonist Joe Harriott and guitarist Amancio D'Silva in one of the key documents of British jazz with South Asian connections. The album features a refined ensemble sound that avoids simple exoticism, emphasizing composition, color, and improvisational interplay. Its later reappraisal has made it a notable title in the history of Indo-jazz and post-bop exchange.
