The Story
"Originally released in March 2014, v2.0, was GoGo Penguin's breakthrough album and the first to feature the rebooted line-up with new bassist Nick Blacka, pianist Chris Illingworth and drummer Rob Turner. It was named a Mercury Prize album of the year 2014 alongside albums from Damon Albarn, Young Fathers and Jungle. Jazz, techno, hip-hop and dubstep are glimpsed here, but for all the looping motifs and dance floor vibes, this is the work of three sure-footed improvisers with deep jazz roots, a stirring re-evaluation of what a piano trio should sound like in the 21st century." - Gondwana Records
"One of the most formidable three piece groups in the world right now." - Gilles Peterson
- award-winning 2014 album from nu-jazz trio GoGo Penguin
- transparent green colored double vinyl pressing
- gatefold sleeve
- original release year: 2014
- music label: Gondwana Records 2023
ALSO AVAILABLE
- Matthew Halsall & The Gondwana Orchestra: When The World Was One Vinyl 2LP
