Harry Beckett's 'Flare Up' (1970) is a much talked about and sought-after album from an artist and composer who had a six-decade career in jazz. The album contains the funk driven track 'Third Road', which was featured on the critically acclaimed 2020 BJE compilation album 'Journeys In Modern Jazz; Britain 1965-1972'. Continuing the 'British Jazz Explosion' vinyl series, the album is reissued for the very first time on vinyl as a limited print run with thick card 'flip-back' laminated sleeve plus a 12x12 insert with new liner notes by Tony Higgins. The audio has been lovingly remastered by Gearbox from the original master tapes and is pressed on 180grm vinyl by Optimal.
