Welcome to Azut

Where Jacques Brel meets Tom Waits serenaded by bandoneon and clarinet
Where Jules meets Jim whilst Bertolt Brecht and Hans Eisler agitate for the
United Front
Where the troubadours of seven hundred years past go head-to-head with
Ornette Coleman’s dreams of the shape of jazz to come
Azut
Singing songs of death and longing and dockside shenanigans in a
language that half their audience and this writer can’t make head or tails of
Where the offstage influences of tango and free improvisations mix
it up with the opening chord of ‘A Hard Day’s Night’
Azut
A world without borders
An alternative history
A musical mash up
And now, at last, recorded for posterity, for our delectation and pleasure
Azut
Ahhh Zoot!
Enjoy!

(Patrick Taylor)
