Yes, it is a SteepleChase album, recorded on February, 1976. With NHOP and Tootie Heath. It includes a wonderful 20' suite ('Catalan Suite'), which is in fact a medley of four Catalonian traditional folksongs. Higher quality pic of the orginal LP:

I've had a bootleg of this concert for years, but it did not include all the material released by NDR. Great playing and underrecorded piano, I agree!

Here's listening to the recent Omnivore 2-CD release of his solo piano private recordings, on a repeat mode. What a fascinating player! A mix of Thelonious Monk and Bud Powell (or rather Elmo Hope?) with hints of Art Tatum.

Thanks for the reference! Never listened to (or even heard of) him.

I’m curious on who that Eastern Europe sax player was!

Woow, woow, and woow...

That iconic cover was for an album of four 78 rpm discs. https://www.discogs.com/es/release/5880723-Rodgers-Hart-Smash-Hits-By-Rodgers-Hart

Yes, it is described in Golson' autobiography, pages 92-93. However, it is very unlikely that such meeting ever happened, taking into consideration the well known agendas of Louis Armstrong and the Lionel Hampton Orchestra (for which Brownie played during several months during that year), as demonstrated by Spanish trumpetist Joan Mar Sauqué in his article 'Clifford Brown with Tadd Dameron: chronicle of the summer of 1953', published in the jazz research periodical Jazz-hitz (#04, 2021). http://jazz-hitz.musikene.eus/index.php/jazz-hitz/article/view/87/51 (the article is in Spanish, but you can find and abstract in English) Sauqué concludes that an encounter similar to what Golson describes is likely to have happened, but with a different trumpet player (Idrees Sulieman or Johnny Coles).

Sure! There ain't no bad Brownie record... Such a huge loss for jazz!
