If you're keeping up to date with the graduates from the College Of Knowledge, Temporary Blessings have earnt a permanent gold star for this debut album, 'Sumbisori'.
So this is the 'big screen' version of the Melbourne/Naarm cinematic soul movement that takes jazzy-beats of 'student's like Surprise Chef, Karate Boogaloo and The Pro-Teens' and move the centre of groove ot 60s OST themes by the likes of Morricone and Piero Piccioni et al.
You'll recall the single, 'Fata Morgana' is high on the flute and vibes but these ten tracks have it all, 'Michelin Star' over looks the Bay of Naples all the way to Death In Venice and 'Silence Leaves an Open Wound'.
Led by Liam McGorry (trumpet player/piano/organ/composer) who is joined by Will Morrissey (tenor saxophonfe), Lachlan Stuckey (guitar). Tom Petitt (bass), Katarzyna Wiktorski (piano) and Hudson 'Brenda' Whitlock (drums, vibraphone - see 'Bath Time' review HERE).
The album ends on the 'drama' of 'Delon' and 'Carlton Streets' and whilst there's no 'Get Carter' theme, it's definitely in the Roy Budd envelope - order the vinyl before it sells of of the limited edition.
