KESHAVAN MASLAK "HUMANPLEXITY" (LEO, 1979)




It seems that this three musicians had played already some time together before cutting these two sides. All in all a "typical" recording for the two dutch masters - including this wonderful quirky humor. And Keshavan Maslak is with ease on par cum Misha and Han.
