Interesting, I must admit I have never heard of or seen this After the Bridge record. Seems to be mainly Japanese issues on Discogs. What’s the story here, who is on these sessions and why weren’t they released at the time?

The sessions were also issued on domestic CDs, just under different titles.

The initial issue was by French RCA and was unapproved by Rollins.

First listen, there will be lots more. I do love the fact that after listening to Jazz for 30+ years there's still albums like this to discover. love the "tartness" of his tone.

I don't have that one, I do have a couple of others of Rosewoman's from that vintage that I like a lot

Gunther Klatt & Elephantrombones - Live At Jazztage Leverkusen [Enja, Germany 1988]

Picked this up dirt cheap and it's a really interesting listen, especially if you like trombone sections...four trombonists on this. Some lovely writing and orchestration

The orginal (jap. reissue 1992) PJ-0065 - rec. March 1962 - Engineer: Richard Bock

[clifford_thornton]

Haven't dug that Anderza out in a minute. Thanks for the reminder, enjoyable date (have the same Japanese pressing).

Katanga is brilliant. Picked that up as a Stereo PJ original at one point, not a regular find in the bins/walls of the shops so I must thank eBay for the opportunity.
