Back in 1981 Haze were a band consistently touring the southwest of England, rocking shows from Torquay to Exeter and slightly further beyond. Their release, recorded to campaign to save milk bottle tops for the local disabled school, did quite well.On their album were a few classics, a cover of Johnny Cash, a cover of ABBA, a cover of... Azymuth? Yep, the trio from Rio made an impression on Tony Ridley. As he took it to the band to include on their record.For 43 years their version hasn't even graced Youtube. Now PANORAMA unearth this gem in their trademark 7' format, from Rio to Torquay - Haze knew how to jazz funk.On the B-side we get another unique cover, this time of the space disco masterpiece 'Magic Fly' by the French group Space.PANORAMA Records is a newly established label based in London, is dedicated to rediscovering and showcasing musical gems with a fresh approach. With early support from notable DJs such as Gilles Peterson, Patrick Forge, Rainer Trueby, Mr. Bongo DJs, and Zag Erlat from My Analog Journal. Their unique take on Jazz and Funk from the further afield has shown they will become trailblazers in the reissue game for a long time.TracklistingA. Jazz Carnival (3:32)B. Magic Fly (3:05)
