  5. Ernst, Thank you for the reup and original post of this show.
    This is a fucking amazing performance!!!! Beautiful. How this never got an official release is beyond me....
    Nachtmusik im WDR must have been an interesting radio show.
    Is that Nachtmusik still on the air(radio)? Otherwise, how long was it on the air for (what years)?
    Very familiar with the JOHN TCHICAI QUARTET "NACHTMUSIK - KÖLN, 1972" post, you also posted here.

  6. Jeff - as far as I know the format "Nachtmusik" (founded against internal opposition by Dr. ALfred Krings) at the WDR isn't on air anymore. Also a research didn't show anything. The 1960s and 70s were the heyday of such cutting edge programms. That's also the outspoken tendency of Schlippenbach, Brötzmann, Lovens or Christmann about this subject. I'm not sure but sometime in the 1980s "Nachtmusik" was closed.
    In the vaults of the German broadcast stations still remain many unreleased wonderful and rare concerts. But I know for sure that - sadly - a lot of these recordings have been destroyed, thrown away or overwritten. The best archives are from the WDR and the SWR. But all had some excellent stuff recorded. F.e. there was an Albert Ayler production done by the BR (Bavarian broadcast) a few days before his group played the Berlin Jazz Festival in 1966. But it is probably lost. Same goes for a concert of the Manfred Schoof Quintet with Don Cherry from April 11, 1967 at the Munich Jazz Days.
    We are lucky that still a lot of concerts are available and especially we have to thank all those unnamed men (and women?) who had taped these concerts which would have been lost otherwise.

    Here's one link you maybe would like to discover.

    Under this link you will find another recording, made in Stuttgart, with the same line-up presented with this post.

    Maybe I should finally start to add the remaining RJGS from my collection to Inconstant Sol.
