Mr Bongo present the official re-issues of French bassist Henri Texier's iconic 'Varech', released in 1977, and his lesser known but equally great albums 'A Cordes et à Cris' alongside his debut 'Amir' on vinyl LP.
Henri Texier is a hero of world jazz. In a career stretching back to the 60s, he’s played bass with American pioneers Bud Powell and Don Cherry, and with his peers in the evolution of a European jazz aesthetic – Michel Portal, Louis Sclavis are just two.
