I think this is a killer recording. Not quite up to the historical uniqueness of the previous posting from sotise, but nevertheless, a farely rare combination of artists. Kessler has long been associated with KV in his bands, particularly Vandermark 5. This trio has in fact made a recording together, in 1996, still available on OKKA records.
There's some great trumpet work (or is it cornet ?) from McPhee, particularly on the first track (which is my favourite of the set).
I think the recording is an audience boot, but very good quality (I've heard far worse commercial recordings). Thanks to "guitars" for seeding.

ok, i'll bite!
think I picked this up elsewhere and my recollection is it's so good, I'll get it again in the event I was mistaken
(about having it, I mean ...)
(er, um sorry, off my meds again)
Nice set! Thank you Boromir.
looking forward to heaing this..
how can one go wrong here?
thanks boromir
Many thanks, Boromir. I was at this terrific performance and have fond memories. Gallery 37 is a wonderful acoustic space in which Joe's dynamics and thoughtfulness really flourish.
After listening to this again, my ears wonder if he's on the coronet on Track 1. But my eyes insist that he was on his ever-reliable pocket trumpet. For what it's worth.
Any chance someone can update this with a working link?
Thanks
I second eric's request: could someone please repost this? I know that I'm coming to the show late but I'd love to have this. Thanks.
Back again: Please, please could someone re-up this monster? Would love to have it. Thanks. Rob
After all this time, no generous soul to reup this one? :)
