Excellent, the quartet piece sounds vaguely like something Kenny and Evan played on the ECM session, Around Six. Thanks, much appreciated.

Five or six years ago Riccardo was posting some amazing Italian concerts from the seventies.
It would be very good to have some of them available again!
There were two posts of the quartet with Kenny Wheeler, Evan Parker, Barry Guy & Paul Lytton, from Lovere & Rome in 1978, which I’d love to hear.

Historically valuable & otherwise completely unobtainable!

I have the Rome concert on my pc - I will upload it later. The recording from Lovere I have on a cd-r which I shall re-up during the next few days.

Very many thanks for this - a fine tribute to the late, great Kenny Wheeler. Interesting to compare it with the 1994 Vortex gig by the same line-up (http://inconstantsol.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/parkerguylytton-kenny-wheeler-1994.html)
sixteen years later...

Thank you Ernst.
Nice to see Muvangua's comments. My sentiments exactly!
I appreciate the recent attention to Riccardo's post from all of you at IS. Hopefully you won't mind my requests in that forum. Peace to all you great music lovers!!!
