Info zu Jade Warrior (2022 Remastered Edition)

Es gibt viel mysteriöses und magisches in der Musik von Jade Warrior, einer britischen Band, denen das progressive Label Vertigo Anfang der 70er Jahre viel zu verdanken hatte. Eine »elektrische« Band mit Jon Field (percussion) und Tony Duhig (guitar), die zu Pionieren der Welt- und New Age Musik wurde.

Die Band veröffentlichte insgesamt 3 Alben: ›Jade Warrior‹, ›Released‹ und ›Last Autumn's Dream‹. Der Sound stellte sich zusammen aus straightem Rock, variabelen Tempi und die für Anfang der 70er Jahre für Art-Rock-Bands bekannte experimentelle Instrumentierung. Das Album wurde 1971 im Original veröffentlicht und ist positiv-verrückt. Psychedelischer Rock geht über in Stammesmusik, eigentlich unbeschreibar und doch faszinierend.

Jade Warrior
Formed in 1970, this UK progressive rock outfit centred on the multi-instrumental talents of Tony Duhig (d. November 1990; guitar, bass, keyboards) and Jon Field (percussion, flute, guitar, keyboards), previously members of psychedelic-pop act July. Glyn Havard (bass/vocals) completed the pair’s new venture, which, although inspired by oriental motifs, betrayed a greater debt to UK progressive rock. Jade Warrior completed three albums for the renowned Vertigo Records label, the second of which, Revealed, expanded the line-up to include Allan Price (drums) and Dave Conners (saxophone). Last Autumn’s Dream introduced Duhig’s brother David (guitar) into the line-up. Havard left the band when a fourth set, Eclipse, failed to secure a release, while the founding duo began a parallel career as session musicians. Jade Warrior’s later releases, issued by Island Records and featuring the core duo of Tony Duhig and Field, showed an even greater propensity for experimentation, but failed to elevate the band above cult status. Following six years of inactivity, the Duhigs and Field reassembled the band for Horizen, but the reunion proved short-lived. Tony Duhig and Field recorded one further album, 1989’s unrepresentative, new age-orientated At Peace. Tony Duhig succumbed to a fatal heart attack in November 1990, shortly after he had begun playing with Field, Dave Sturt (bass) and Colin Henson (guitar) in a new line-up of Jade Warrior. Field carried on with the new line-up, releasing two further albums on the Red Hot label during the early 90s.
