I have these three albums on vinyl plus other John Stevens incarnations. I loved the honesty of the playing and telepathic interplay between the brilliant musicians and never dreamed they would surface on CD, let alone in such a well-packaged way with an excellent booklet.I feel that many people who primarily like rock music would like this given a chance to hear it. Brilliant drumming and bass combined with saxophone and guitar exploring their way ahead without ever lapsing into cliche. My introduction to John came about as a result of attending the Bracknell Jazz Festivals - at that time (30+ years ago) I didn't even know what free jazz was so had a totally open mind! This comes under the broad category of free jazz but is somehow accessible at the same time. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ JOHN STEVENS - Gone, NOT forgotten. *by C***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 January 2016* More Gold from BGO ! Well done. Should be in the collection of any serious 70's British Jazz fan. I have the vinyl (and the John Martyn single), but the whole set (3 L.P.s on 2 CDs) is not going to be beaten as either a bargain or for the content. John Stevens was a master in all the situations he placed himself in, from the S.M.E., duos with Evan Parker, trio with John Martyn & Danny Thompson, quartets, sextets and up to the Spontaneous Dance Orchestra. Crisp, clear sound, original ideas, great playing. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/63037079-john-stevens-away-somewhere-in-between-mazin-ennit](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/63037079-john-stevens-away-somewhere-in-between-mazin-ennit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
