EUROPE JAZZ ALL STARS "ROOM 1220" (TRIO, 1970)

Already posted in 2011 - here's the  re-up....

A forgotten masterpiece of European Jazz.
'Room 1220' is a tender yet burning duo of Mangelsdorff and Surman. And the mood of 'My Kind Of Beauty' still needs a public location (club or however you want to call it) to be build for ... in general I'm not a big fan of the Hammond organ, but what Eddy Louis is able to deliver ... and please listen to John Surman and Albert Mangelsdorff - they use the clichés - yet they reach a level far above such truisms.

Sadly OOP!




John Surman, baritone saxophone
Albert Mangelsdorff, trombone
Eddy Louis, piano, hammond organ
Nils-Henning Ørsted Pedersen, bass
Daniel Humair, drums

EUROPEAN JAZZ ALL STARS "C'EST TOUT" (FAR EAST, 1970)

Four LPs by the Europe(an) All Stars were cut during their August 1970 tour in Japan. This is the first one the fourth and last one you'll find here
The list of all four LPs you will find in the comments of the fourth LP - courtesy of bunsen_lamp.
His listing sparked my desire to hear the others...does anyone has the other two: "Our Kind Of Sabi" and "Astrorama"?
Enjoy.
