There's been some recent interest in the great Larry Stabbins who has sadly hung up his saxophone these days.  I had a look through some boxes and came up with these sessions.  None are exactly hifi but all are listenable.  I didn't record any of them, so thanks to the original tapers.

The Eddie Prevost Quartet also existed with Evan Parker instead of  Larry. One of their gigs I attended at the Duke of Wellington goes down as one of my favourite gigs of all time.  Unfortunately unrecorded.

ELTON DEAN - 2 Quartets: London 1992 + 1997

It took me a while, but finally here are two amazing cassette recordings courtesy of Andy, posted previously in Contributions section. Earlier one from 1992 can be seen as alternative version of Elton Dean / Howard Riley Quartet, a regular team of 90's, also posted here in the meantime by Andy himself. Riley & Dean photo comes from the booklet of their duo album "One To One" (Slam Productions 1999) and was taken by George Haslam.

ELTON DEAN - alto sax & saxello
HOWARD RiLEY - piano
PAUL ROGERS - bass
TONY LEViN - drums

1. improvisation  - 55:50 + appl.

Rumours, London, 28 February 1992  (Riley on a very ropy old piano)

Second and more 'feverish' piece from 1997 is by one-off grouping - a rare opportunity to hear Elton with Veryan Weston, and suprisingly (as I found when adding tags) also first IS post including this prodigious British pianist and improviser. Thank you for being there and being here, Andy!
