  1. Yes thats correct what you say. AFAIK Joachim Kühn (p) is from East Berlin (Former DDR or GDR). Also correct - His bother playing clarinet = Rolf Kühn (or Kuhn in engl:) Both emigrated to the US. Rolf Kühn played very much in the Buddy DeFranco style. Ponomarev is known to me. We had him with the Messengers in 1979 in our private Jazzclub in Koblenz (Germany). See my foto below + autographs. Here is one of the eastern big bands with guests from the West. Yes like her very much. Have some very fine livebroadcast from german & Switzerland radio + a nice concert with Yes a very good explanation. Listening to VOA (here in Germany via LW coming from Tanger (Africa) to us) was important for the music alone. No complaints at that time even when the voice of Willis did fade away and coming back here and then during the broadcast. BTW his archive is IMO available via net from the University of Texas. Had just contacted them some days ago to provide a link to listen to these broadcasts again.
  2. I used to trade jazz from behind the Iron Curtain with people from East Germany (DDR at these times). This one above and some stuff more from Poland, CSSR a. o. Also many bigbands. There was a living jazz scene in those eastern countries influenced by listening to the VOA with Willis Conover especially in Hungary.
  3. Yes its a real joy to listen to that relaxed swing of this group. A great fan here!
  4. Is this the original edition? Have one on the "Flyright" label.
  5. Dark Orchid 601-04018 - Sammy Nestico - rec. 1981 - Engineer: Stan Ross
  6. Nice! Have several CD's with that band. Not too often seen here.
  7. A great 2 LP set with top West Coast Jazz groups [FSR reissue 1985]
  8. Had a discussion at SHF about Fresh Sound and Gambit. IMHO Gambit is located in Andorra and Fresh Sound in Spain. For collectors no great difference but for the lawyers. BTW the very rare Bill Evans Concert at Bad Hönningen (I was among the selected guests for this private concert one the day before Evans birthday at the private house of architect Fritz Feltens) was also issued completely on Gambit (8 years after the concert was recorded at the private home by a mobile recording unit of german radio WDR) and in a shorter version (minus some tracks) on another (official) label.
  9. Looks like my copy at Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/release/8616156-Jim-Hall-Trio-Jim-Hall-Trio-The-Complete-Jazz-Guitar
