Recorded November 24, 1989 at Nederlands Congresgebouw, Hague, Holland

Varajazz 1990 (Varagram VCD 006-02)

This joyous celebration of SA jazz & freedom is led by South African born saxophonist Sean Bergin, based in Holland, and was recorded as live radio session. Line up is a mixture of Dutch and South African players and includes Master drummer Louis Moholo-Moholo (Bergin was member of his band Viva La Black at the time) and trumpeter Claude Deppa. Comprised of 3 Bergin's compositions plus a piece by pianist Mervyn Afrika, one Dollar Brand's tune and legendary theme Sonia by Mongezi Feza, immortalised by Robert Wyatt on his Ruth Is Stranger Than Richard album, Jazz For Freedom is maybe not as great as Brotherhood Of Breath, their individual members' work or other Bergin's recordings, but still worth to hear and pretty rare to find. This cd was surprising found object at one Prague second hand music cellar for me and is unavailable for long time I believe, as Dutch Varagram label is no more in function due to my research.

"... one of the few original moments of the festival, since this group had something else to say than almost anybody else." (Marc-A. Chenard, Coda 210, Oct/Nov 1986)

Owombat says: it appears from the musicians comments, that the concert started with the music on the B-side of the LP.

Enjoy!
