So, there we go... the idea was to present jazz from Germany, recorded in the sixties mostly, with some later tracks included. There are a few big names in here - Albert Mangelsdorff, Klaus Doldinger, the Kühn brothers (Rolf and Joachim), but the secret star here was alto saxophonist Ernst-Ludwig "Luten" Petrowsky, a musician I first heard about ten years ago when I discovered the amazing Zentralquartett (w/Ulrich Gumpert, Conrad Bauer and Günter "Baby" Sommer). He pops up here playing hardbop,
