The Epic — 2015

A nearly three-hour debut of widescreen spiritual jazz with choir and strings. Ambitious and immersive. A landmark of the modern jazz revival. First in our ranking of Kamasi Washington's work, and the natural place to start.

On vinyl: Fresh pressings are easy to source; this is a good one to buy new rather than hunt second-hand.
