Vaalbleek - Cleansing Department Orchestra - Gemeente Reinigingsorkest [from the album it's completely unclear which is the name of the band and which is the album title - but only one of them is provided in both English and Dutch - I guess it's the album's title]. I've thus moved from Utrecht [Gijs Hendriks] to the southern Netherlands [home], and this here may well be the most fun free jazz album I've ever heard... with tracks that would feel at home on an easy listening compilation... even though this clearly still is free jazz ca 1980, played by a line-up of guys [best-known: Paul van Kemenade] who (just like my self) went through their cities' brass+wind orchestras ("Harmonie"s, even though we didn't call them this), listened to their Soft Machine albums and never thought twice about carnival gigs (or at least: must have played them nevertheless).

His best and a good listen

Agreed - still do like a lot his first outing "Coup De Tete" and the first two Conjure projects aka "Music For The Texts Of Ishmael Reed" and " Cab Calloway Stands In For The Moon" ....
