JAN GARBAREK TRIO "KIRCHHEIM, 1973"

Had this recording on a hd since at least six years - most probably I got it from the contributions section or from Dime.

After the comments from plosin and andycher I checked the files and changed the indexes accordingly.
Below is my solution to the "problem". Probably still not correct but at leat better than before.
Plus I've removed manually a few digital artifacts.
 Enjoy.

TUOHI KLANG "PENNSELMANN HITS VOL.2765" (UFO, 1972)

After removing at least 500 clicks I'm finally able to present this wonderful music.

In my IMHO this is one of Vesala's best recordings - excellent and intense drumming!
Strong baritone from  Paakkunainen....Koskinen's trumpet!
Wonderful and joyful bass work from Hauta-aho...Pekka Pöyry's reeds are...Mircea Stan and his trombone...high wailing harmonies - snake-lines...clear articulation - no cliches....space even when playing heavy....enough praising...
A real gem - hope it will be re-issued soon - would be happy to delete the links and buy me a remastered CD....

Meanwhile - Enjoy.

NDR JAZZ WORKSHOP NO.95 - ROLF & JOACHIM KÜHN GROUP (1973)

Here's a post I've made from a contribution propylaen2001 has made today (see comments section).

Thank you very much!!

Here's what he wrote (except I've changed the layout a bit...).

Here's a great performance from the 95th NDR Jazzworkshop which I compiled from a trade CDR that I had acquired several years ago and a recent DIME upload:

Randy Brecker, trumpet
Rolf Kühn, clarinet
Joachim Kuehn, piano, electric piano
Toto Blanke, guitar
Palle Danielsson, bass
Edward Vesala , drums
Kasper Winding, percussion


Tracks:
1. Do Dat Dudek (18:51)
2. Palle's Tune (8:49)
3. Paris '73 (9:05)
4. German Country (19:57)
5. Things Are What They Used To Be (17:19)
6. Spider's Dance (15:08)

Total time 1:29:09

 Rolf & Joachim Kuehn
NDR Jazzworkshop no. 95

Hamburg, Germany
1973-11-20

Source: FM radio broadcast
Lineage: FM > ? Trade CDR > EAC (secure) > WAV > TLH > FLAC (L8)

Notes:
My trade CDR had an abbreviated version of track #5 which clocked in at 7:32.
Last month unclewolfi uploaded a complete version of this tune from a recent rebroadcast at NDR Info.
I used this one and added the missing applause at the end from my trade CDR.
Lineage for this track would be: DVB-S > Techno Trend TT-Premium S2-6400 Twin HD > HDD > mp2 (320 kbps) > Nero Wave editor > Flac > TLH > WAV > Adobe Audition CS6 (edits) > TLH > FLAC (L8, align on SB)

For the purists, the original track #5 (as received on the trade CDR) is included in a separate folder.

Does anybody know for sure if this is the complete performance or if there is still some part missing?

Enjoy!

TOMASZ STANKO - Almost Green (Leo 1979)

"Almost Green" is fourth and last record by great Stanko Quartet with Vesala and Szukalski, this time with wonderful dwarf Palle Danielsson on bass. Released by Finnish label Leo Records in 1979, this album was preceeded by "TWET" (Muza 1974), "Balladyna" (ECM 1976) and "Live at Remont" (Helicon 1978), each with different bassist. But always the rhythm section sounded pretty heavy and whole quartet freshly and recognizably. Maybe it is wishful thinking from my side, but I often thought when listening to "Balladyna" that there are some similarities with great Elton Dean Quintet's "Boundaries", and I got that feeling again with "Live at Remont" and "Almost Green", which were completely new to me during last weeks... Thanks to original uploader svantetic and his former blog Almost Black, and to mew23, who kept this rip and shared it with us. BTW, "From Greenhills" theme is reprised as title track of Stanko's 1999 ECM album "From The Green Hill".

Garbarek at Moers 1973

Following Boromir's fine posting of Garbarek from Bremen in 1974, I thought I'd back up one year and put up this concert from 1973 at Moers.

This was the line-up featured on the "Triptykon" album on ECM. Arild Andersen was the bassist in the original quartet (with Terje Rypdal and Jon Christensen), but on the album and on this concert, Edward Vesala features on drums. Vesala went on to record a series of albums under his name for ECM and the "Nan Madol" and "Satu" are specially recommended. In the eighties he formed his Sound and Fury band which provided a spring board for budding guitarist Raoul Björkenheim. Vesala has collaborated for many years with veteran saxophonist Juhani Aaltonen. Andersen went on to record many albums under his own name for ECM, including with the Mesqualero group. Andersen is still active; Vesala died in the late 90s.

What's here is a long medley, basically, of about 45 minutes, followed by two encores, one of which is a take on Bob Dylan's "My Back Pages". I really enjoy this set; long, flowing, loose, featuring some of Garbarek's most "freeish" playing, but the two others add considerably to the ambience as Garbarek is never one to insist on grabbing the spotlight all the time. The trio format also allows for more space for each player.

I always thought this trio was woefully under-recorded, so quite happy to grab this concert on Dime. Originally seeded by rudolff and re-seeded by jaype who added the artwork seen above. Thanks to both for their generosity (and good taste).
