FLYING DUTCHMAN -
ANTHOLOGY
Flying Dutchman, the
brainchild of the famous writer/producer Bob Thiele, was one of the most
innovative jazz labels to emerge in the late sixties/early seventies. The
roster was wide and varied, but had a common theme: quality. The music had an
edge to it that was complemented by the well-designed gatefold sleeves with
comprehensive notes. The label ran from 1969 to 1976 after which some of the
artists were transferred to RCA, who had been distributing the label. In this
anthology we have tried to encapsulate the breath and quality of the label by
featuring the main artists that recorded for it and its subsidiaries. We
feature many of the popular tracks from the label, although we have
deliberately omitted a few tracks that have been reissued or included in other
compilations on numerous occasions.
