Can't get enough Sam Rivers/Dave Holland material. Interesting line up change for this date--before Thurman Barker stepped in on the kit to record the Waves lp.

Many thanks for this dynamite post.

Yeah, this is great stuff, 80 minutes on full speed ahead and definitely one to be resurrected!

I've taken the liberty of deleting a bunch of comments here (identical/similar wording, anonymous sender etc.), but kept the genuine ones.

More Sam Rivers to come!

Thanks for the reup of this kinabalu. I have the Brescia, but not this one. Really looking forward to giving it a spin later.

Sam's really at his best when there are no time considerations to worry about. Thanks for all the reups. No such thing as too much Sam Rivers.

Sam live was always best, free from format constraints, I agree Rev.B. Spent a few hours at Rivbea,and in Florida. Live on Sam in these recordings. Thanks for the great shares.
