The rhythm section was playing with a straight-ahead yet contemporary feel, while Sanders was seamlessly blending the avant-garde or free aesthetic and main- stream straight-ahead jazz, as well as the blues and R&B influences from early in his career.2 This band—and this period of Sanders’s career—have been largely neglected and Sanders himself has generally been poorly represented in the media.3 Sanders, as is true for many, many musicians, suffers from the fact that in critical discourses jazz styles often remain conceptualized as fitting into pre-conceived cat- egories such as straight-ahead, mainstream, and avant-garde or free jazz.

  • Flying Dutchman Label Discography
    Flying Dutchman Discography by David Edwards, Mike Callahan & Patrice Eyries © 2018 by Mike Callahan Flying Dutchman Label Discography Flying Dutchman was a jazz label created 1969 by the renowned producer/arranger Bob Thiele. It produced a fascinating mix of forward thinking music; the label combined the sounds of jazz, soul, experimentation, and black politics. Although the label put out some standard jazz albums, their most incredible records were those of unique musicians such as Leon Thomas, Lonnie Liston Smith, Gil Scott-Heron and Angela Davis. Initially the label was distributed by Atco Division of Atlantic, but later was switched to Bob Shad’s Mainstream label for two years. By 1974 the distribution was switched to RCA which distributed the label to 1984. The Flying Dutchman catalog was acquired by Legacy Recordings in 1993 from Bob Shad's daughter Tamara when she sold the assets of Mainstream Records, which had distributed Flying Dutchman until it closed in 1978. The Flying Dutchman label had several subsidiaries the specialized in different musical styles. The Amsterdam label concentrated on popular music including the recordings of Thiele’s wife Teresa Brewer. The Reggae label was established to release the reggae music from Jamaica. The Bluestime label was established to release blues recordings. Starting in 1974, Flying Dutchman albums were released in the RCA numbering system and were distributed by RCA. This numbering system was also used for albums on the Signature which was reactivated in 1974; Thiele also established the Bob Thiele Music label. For other albums on the Flying Dutchman, Signature, Bob Thiele Music label releases see the discography of the Bob Thiele labels.
