Reissue of the 3rd album of Patrick Jean-Marie recorded in 1985, Produced by Mambo Chick for Symbole Records.

Introducing “Women” by Kat-Tet, a unique musical gem straight from Guadeloupe, 1985. This rare album, the only studio-recorded masterpiece by the brilliant pianist Patrick Jean-Marie, transports us to a soundscape where every note is a journey.

It was a true opportunity for Patrick Jean-Marie and his band to showcase their talents, recorded under professional conditions, resulting in a sound of exceptional quality. The meticulous attention to orchestration is evident throughout, revealing a solidly crafted masterpiece.

Following the bold experiments with Atika and a solo album in 1983, “Women” marks a new chapter in Patrick Jean-Marie’s career. The album showcases a more structured approach that allows Kat-Tet to create a magical space for organized solos and climax. The dialogue between Patrick Jean-Marie’s piano and Luther François’s alto saxophone is constantly surprising and some powerful bridges by Patrick Jean-Marie are unforgettable.

A true classic in its genre, “Women” by Kat-Tet LP was an “hard-to-find” treasure in the vinyl world.
Today, Symbole is thrilled to bring this exceptional album back into the spotlight, sharing the beautiful and timeless music from Guadeloupe, 1985, with a high taste of Jazz !
