For J and Onxi
Trane's spirit hovers gently over this neglected BYG gem, which to my ears is a companion piece to the Outrageously campily eclectic monster psychedellica of dear professor Leary..
the chemistry's so good , Kuhn , Jenny- Clarke and Romano , seemed to have forged a lasting musical friendship , resulting in many further collaborations over the years...
Kuhn is still recording prolifically ..take a look
J, sorry we cant help with "Paris is beautiful" i don't think any of us has heard it, and certainly should any of our readers want to share a nice raw syrup free, vinyl rip , we would all be most appreciative ..
. our belief is that the BYG catalog, ought by now to be firmly in the Public Domain given that so few of the artists actually saw a dime from recordings which have by and large been circulating in so many dubious semi legitimate issues over the decades ..
Bass, Flute, Bells –Jean Francois Jenny-Clarke
Drums, Flute, Tambourine, Bells –Aldo Romano
Piano, Saxophone [Alto], Shenai, Flute, Tambourine, Bells –Joachim Kuhn

Nice record, of a piece with the excellent Bold Music on MPS and Portal's Our Meanings & Our Feelings on Pathé. You are right that the follow-up, Paris is Wonderful, is a bit more of a "corker."
ReplyDeleteThank you - I wanted to hear this since I've read Ekkehard Jost's "Europa's Jazz 1960 - 80".
ReplyDeleteNow after 27 years I will do so - wonderful!
Onxi, yr welcome!

Alex i don't have a plan... i'm not really a label kind of guy, i have owned Stigmates, and the Acting trio...but gave them away , because i didn't think they were that good...that was 25 years ago , i may not have the same opinion...
ReplyDeleteacting trio compared to SME, AMM, MEV,is pretty mediocre ..i stand by that opinion...
all the others have been around the blogs including here!
i should have added those were the days when you could give records you didn't like.. away.. i bought scratchy , messed up copies of stigmates, and Acting trio , they were a buck each

ReplyDeleteWhen I was a kid in the mid 70s, the local record store got in a batch of albums from the Byg/Actuel series as cut outs [discontinued] for $2 each with tax. In retrospect, they were my introduction to abstract [free] modern jazz/improv. This was the first one I bought. Thank you the the chance to revisit it again.
ReplyDeleteat harmony hut in the mid 70s, i remember hundred of copies of this, Burton Greene and Jacques Coursil and a few others for 1.49. Same store?
DeleteHI rev.b - it seems you had a fine record shop in your neighbourhood. And the price was OK as well I see. In my town the record store was OK (as far as my horizon went then). But in the store was a wooden box on the floor. And there I've discovered several much more interesting vinyls - not cheap but exciting. I assume the distributors asked the owner to take at least one copy each. This way I strated to discover music which wasn't in the top 40 or so. Cheers
ReplyDeleteEuropean Free Jazz at his best ! Thanks !
