From the BBC website at the time of the braodcast:
...
This completely improvised set was recorded in June this year in the living room of Dean's flat in London's Dalston. Four years after his death it still contained posters, tapes and memorabilia that provided poignant reminders of Dean's life and work, and plenty of inspiration for the musicians who came together to remember him. Just a few days after this session was recorded the flat was due to be cleared out and refurbished.

  4. From the BBC website at the time of the braodcast:
    Jez Nelson presents a session played in tribute to the late saxophonist Elton Dean, featuring Alex Maguire on keyboards, trumpeter Jim Dvorak, saxophonist Simon Picard, bassist Paul Rogers and drummer Tony Levin.

    A versatile musician, whose work over four decades encompassed free improvisation, jazz-rock and avant-jazz, Elton Dean was a key figure on the UK's creative music scene until his death in 2006 at the age of 60. Having made his name in Keith Tippett's sextet and then seminal rock group Soft Machine in the late 60s and early 70s, he went on to lead diverse projects of his own and work with a wide range of collaborators, several of whom feature in this session.

    This completely improvised set was recorded in June this year in the living room of Dean's flat in London's Dalston. Four years after his death it still contained posters, tapes and memorabilia that provided poignant reminders of Dean's life and work, and plenty of inspiration for the musicians who came together to remember him.

  5. Dear friend you have or know of any link's to make a download of the complete discography of Elton Dean, who is reliable, of course, thank you very much.
    Elton Dean was a British free-jazz musician, who ran alto saxophone and saxello, a type of electric saxophone rarely uses. He was born in 1945 in Nottingham, and took piano and violin lessons as a child. At age 18, he took up the saxophone and became involved in the jazz scene English.
    PS: the link of your blog's no longer work, have some other to lower them :)?

  8. Obviously Ulozto doesn't exist anymore? Or am i the only one to have problems with this link? I can't access.

  10. too boring if I have to use a special program to download. Most providers like 1f or adrive or mediafire gives direct access to the files. Websites who decide to make things not directly accessibles are not for me. Our computers are full of applications for this and for that, it become crazy.
