Hep Records

Sobre el sello

Edimburgo, Reino Unido · 1974 · Fundado por Alastair Robertson

Alastair Robertson fundó Hep Records en Edimburgo, en 1974, para rescatar el jazz que el tiempo empezaba a arrinconar. El sello se dividió con inteligencia: grabaciones contemporáneas de músicos como Joe Temperley o Spike Robinson por un lado, y por el otro, una curaduría obsesiva de transcripciones de radio y acetatos de big bands de los años 30 y 40. No fue un ejercicio de nostalgia diletante, sino un trabajo de restauración técnica que salvó registros que de otro modo se habrían perdido. El swing, acá, se escucha sin interferencias.
