Thanks for posting that 2013 video. Great to see those woman play together! Definitely something I would like to have seen live.

Oh yes I could see the comparison with that. That’s a great record.

It could definitely have worked out with some more preparation. I think Rivers’ more aggressive free approach would work pretty well with Mals dark clusters

Just streamed it trough Spotify and it’s just as dissapointing as I expected. That starts with the bad audio quality. For an 80’s recording this sound really bad. Than it’s the repertoire played here: if they had chosen originals this could have been fire. With these standards they just play nicely. But it’s nothing more than standards played nicely.

Amazing! now playing:

I thinks it’s without them. It’s a duet.

Apparently there is more to come: https://www.bol.com/nl/nl/p/play-monk-ellington-strayhorn/9300000257813768/?cid=1772975931611-8312730531550&bltgh=1cf11f93-df7c-43e8-8e37-2f254f80b871.wishlist_details_page_products.WishlistDetailProductCardItem_0.ProductTitle I’m very, very in!

Wow that must sound amazing all together. Enjoy! I really dig that portrait. Brotzmanns expressive face lends itself perfect for such a photograph.

That looks very cool! 3 questions: which amp, which deck and which beer?
