A gifted artist currently in his sophisticated prime.
John Fordham
Edition Records will release five sought-after Julian Argüelles back catalogue albums on July 26, 2019, including his very first album as a leader, Phaedrus, celebrating 30 years since it was recorded in 1989.
Described as ...a gifted artist currently in his sophisticated prime" by renowned jazz critic John Fordham, award-winning British saxophonist & composer Julian Argüelles has, to date, recorded fifteen CDs as a leader.
He's is about to make some of his back catalogue available for streaming over summer 2019 through Edition Records. This will include his very first album as a leader, Phaedrus, celebrating 30 years since it was recorded in 1989. It features John Taylor (piano), Mick Hutton (bass) and Martin France (drums). Apparently there's some film footage of the Phaedrus recording but I haven't been able to find it yet. If any of your readers can help, that would be amazing. This is a special album for me not least for the fact that it features the much missed John Taylor on piano."
Four out of the five recordings are out of stock and no longer available. Having them accessible online will introduce Julian's current and younger fans to some of his earlier work. He'll be featuring tracks on social media and there will be competitions to win some unique stuff.
See below for Julian's personal track choice from each album and a little background.
