Michel Portal Unit - Live in Lovere '79



My second and last contribution at the musical
story of M.Portal : a single piece, since the
concert devoleped as a long (very long) medley.
Terrific work by the couple Francioli/Favre,
at the level of the most famous Holland/Altschul
or Parker/Drake.

Rec. live in Lovere, Italy, on June 17th, 1979
(mix recording)

Michel Portal,reeds,bandoneĆ²n
Albert Mangelsdorff,trombone

Pierre Favre,percussions

1. Track #1 (1:19:49)

  2. I have a rather muffled "B-" 74min-version of this. I uploaded that on dime last year. This apparently is a different source and so I actually hope for an upgrade :o). Thanks anyway, I'll try it!

  5. thanks for that recording. Though I don't want to critize anyone here, I
    would like to comment that I think that one should have used a bit
    less hiss reduction. Now, some digital artefacts are audible.

    By the way, there is a break in the
    recording! The first piece ends
    around 67'!
