TOMASZ STANKO / BOBO STENSON / ANDERS JORMiN / TONY OXLEY - Bosonossa and Other Ballads (Gowi 1993)



Great version of Stańko Quartet, which recorded albums Matka Joanna and Leosia. This collection on Polish label Gowi preceeded them, and songs 3 and 4 were recorded again at Rainbow Studio for ECM. Bosonossa is out of print for long years - I remember Czech distributor for Gowi telling me when I saw empty jewel box with cover in his shop that the master was lost and cd will not be re-pressed. Radio broadcast with this line-up from 1996 was posted earlier by Andy an can be found here. Enjoy.

Tracklist:

1. Sunia [13:14]
2. White Ballad [9:51]
3. Maldoror's War Song [9:06]
4. Morning Heavy Song [8:15]
