Tenor, Jimi

Sahkomies

With Sahkomies, Jimi Tenor released his legendary solo debut in 1994 on Puu, a spin-off of the Finnish label Sahko Recordings founded by Tommi Gronlund and Mika Vainio in 1993. Recorded in Tenor's former home in New York, the album offers a previously unheard mixture of drum machine driven, electronic sounds and Sun Ra-inspired jazz. Written, recorded and produced entirely by Tenor in his apartment, the pieces have lost none of their spontaneous, roughcast charm to this day. The record combines lo-fi electronics with Jimi Tenor's typical smoky saxophone playing, offering a fascinating listening experience that documents an artist who is full of curiosity and the joy of experimentation. For the 30th anniversary of Sahkomies, Bureau B is thrilled to make this special album available again on LP and CD.
