Emma-Jean Thackray - Yellow

The debut album by Emma-Jean Thackray feels exactly like the sort of thing we've been longing for over the last 12 months: a transcendent, human, shared experience. Across it's 49 minutes, Yellow draws glowing lines between '70s jazz fusion and P-Funk, the cosmic invocations of Sun Ra and Alice Coltrane, and the gorgeous orchestration of the Beach Boys.
