Curtis Mayfield's 'Superfly' funk-soul groove is the base of the psychedelic visions created by this esoteric 'Akelarre Sorta', an unparalleled gem. The African-American saxophonist, pianist and composer William S. Fischer, who worked in the 1950's with stars of the stature of Ray Charles, Muddy Waters, Joe Zawinul and Roberta Flack, made an album of catchy, funky versions of popular tunes in 1972. Little more has ever been known about this recording or about the reasons behind William's visit to the Basque Country. Available on vinyl after more than 50 years.
