Martial Solal - My One and Only Love: Live at Theater Gütersloh / European Jazz Legends, Vol. 15 (Intuition)
Solo piano.

This one definitely goes on my "to get" list.

I was listening to this streaming this morning and it sounds good. The rest of the series sound good too.

I bought it a few days ago. One more gem to add to his awesome production over 65 years.

Yes indeed, it's very good (though the "Frère Jacques" thingie is a bit of a strain on my nerves ... but the ole sir is enjoying himself, which is fine with me).

He has an upcoming gig in Vienna in September it seems ... would love to catch him live, but I can't make that one. Too bad, really!

Given his advanced years I'm delighted to see his name mentioned on the forum for all the right reasons. One of those artists where his name alone makes a purchase a no-brainer. Another for my mountain of Solal material. 

Ditto! :tup

First one seems to be more the bebop classics (mostly Bird-related), second one standards ... guess that could have been programmed differently, but I don't really mind. But the two takes of "Un poco loco" have me wonder if more material (alternate takes) have survived? There would have been plenty of additional space between the two CDs.

One detail/inconsistency: in his liners, Pujol mentions the recordings being made on three consecutive days (July 19-21, 1966), but the info gives them as three days with the break of one day in between (July 18, 19 & 21, 1966).

Either way: a major find!
