Sam The Man Taylor - Mist Of The Orient

Tenor saxophonist Sam Taylor, best known as Sam The Man Taylor, was a popular jazz and blues player in his native America, who had an even bigger career in Japan in the 1960s and 1970s, where he made numerous recordings including the atmospheric album 'Mist of the Orient' made with Japanese musicians.

'Mist of the Orient' included his hit song Harlem Nocturne and had a well-received American issue but has never had a full CD reissue until now. Included are ten bonus tracks from another Sam Taylor album 'Misty Mood', also making their CD debut.
