  6. John Carter has only very few and difficult to find releases. This is a real treasue!! Thanks a lot riccardo!! If there is interest, I could share a show of the Horace Tapscott Sextet in Freiburg, Germany, on 7 August 1987, featuring John Carter.

  8. Sweet! Five Masters at the top of their game. The Moers concert is one of my favorite Carter recordings - this is a most welcome addition. Just love the suppleness of that Carter/Bradford/Newton front-line.

    Bradford's still playing in LA & really hasn't ever received 'his due' recognition . . .

  20. It is most likely at the Middelheim Festival, as it is traditonally in mid-august and I have a book about the Festival, which clearly has the group scheduled for 1979. The exact day is however not specified.
