George Lewis Ensemble - Live in Verona '79

This post completes the documentation of a double performance by the G.Lewis Ensemble at the end of April 1979 in Verona (see AD/DE and GL/RT).
The same Ensemble that recorded "Homage to Charles Parker" for
Black Saint : the two long suites / compositions are clearly an
extended version of the songs on the album.

Special thanks to my dear friend Mr. Zero who recorded the concert.
