If 2019 was the year Shabaka Hutchings cemented himself as a jazz figure to pay close attention to via The Comet Is Coming's Trust In The Lifeforce Of The Deep Mystery, 2020 is the year he cements himself as one of the genre's most adventurous, genius bandleaders, as his new album with his Johannesburg octet Shabaka and The Ancestors is a thrilling, challenging, stunning record that calls to mind classics by Eddie Gale and Archie Shepp, filtered through the cacophony of modern life and Fela Kuti. It's this year's jazz album to beat, awe-inspiring in its depth.
