Terje Rypdal Trio live at Sendesaal, Bremen 1973

Since there seems to be a bit of interest in Rypdal at the moment, here is a set I dragged out of the archives. This was posted in our conributions section as high-grade mp3s, but since I had the flac files lying about, I thought I might as well put them here.

Terje Rypdal Trio
April 4, 1973
Sendesaal, Bremen

Terje Rypdal (g, fl)
Barre Phillips (b)
Jon Christensen (d)

Disc 1
Journal (B. Phillips)    7:04
Horizon (T. Rypdal)    11:12
Black Boy (T. Rypdal)    9:36
Back of J. (B. Phillips)    4:05
Bend It (T. Rypdal) (inc)    14:52

Disc 2
Electric Fantasy (T. Rypdal)    11:00
Event IV (G. Russell)    5:33
Rainbow (T. Rypdal)    8:18
Icing (T. Rypdal-J. Christensen)    15:02
Tough Enough (T. Rypdal) (inc)    6:45

More than 90 minutes in all.

Jon Christensen was with the Jan Garbararek Group at the time and so was Rypdal initially, though I think he might have left by the time of this recording. Barre Phillips was in John Surman's Trio, but the trio might have disbanded by 1973.

Basically improvisational, good sound and to my knowledge, never officially released.

2. INTERNATIONALES NEW JAZZ MEETING AUF BURG ALTENA 1971

Rare performances by: Peter Brötzmann Trio, Alan Skidmore Quintet and Michael Osborne, Tomasz Stanko Quintet,  New Jazz Ensemble and Karin Krog, Albert Mangelsdorff Quartet & The Trio (Surman, Phillips, Martin).
Although the sound is not the best - like a bootleg - to my knowledge it is a bootleg - this double LP offers a glimpse into an otherwise insufficiently recorded phase of European Free Jazz .

My appreciation goes to J. for ripping his LPs for me and now then for you - please say thanks to him.
