Joe Rigby - Praise - Homeboy Music 2007


-Untitled
-India (J.Coltrane)
-Earth flower

Joe Rigby: tenor & soprano sax
Ted Daniel: trumpet
Ken Filiano: bass
Lou Grassi: drums

recordings coming from rehearsal done in Brooklyn in 2007
cdr published by homeboy music, no reference

Almost at the same time the french label « improvising Being » published a superbe cd of the Joe Rigby Quartet, now the label have stopped but perhaps the owner of the label still has some copies, if you are interested you can try to get in touch here
be aware that I’m not talking about the cdr presented here but about another session that I recommend
Regarding Homeboy music, it was a tiny label who published less than 5 titles, including the full session of Norman Howard & Joe Phillips originally recorded for esp but not issued at the time, lately ESP reissued it partially on cd
