Description
"Bennie Maupin has been an inventive contributor to iconic records including Miles Davis’s Bitches Brew, Herbie Hancock’s Mwandishi and Headhunters and Marion Brown’s Afternoon Of A Georgia Faun. His recordings under his own name have been infrequent but his leader debut, is indeed a jewel. 'A more selfless album is hard to imagine', said Down Beat in 1975. 'On The Jewel In The Lotus, the sound is supreme, and all the players strive to achieve a thorough blending'. Recorded in New York in 1974, the disc’s personnel is drawn from the circle around Herbie Hancock in the period, but the music has a character all its own." - ECM
