The late Bob Florence had a good cooperation with the german radio "Hessischer Rundfunk" in Frankfurt. Many years ago  I did record some  studio broadcast with Bob & some HR bigband recordings. I was in touch with Bob via email and  had tried to get him a gig at the WDR . But the "big heads" there were not interested at that time. Really a loss which cannot be repaired.

The WDR was asleep, but the the SWR was awake and produced this wonderful CD.

Bob's Limited Edition produced many wonderful recordings, but this one IMHO, is the summit.

JAS – Volcano (1985)

First time streaming this, which seems to be a very obscure bit of 1970s style modal / spiritual jazz that somehow came into existence in the materialist 1980s. Oddly, they managed to get a Matti Klarwein cover going.

For sure. Fabulous. Getz's solo on "Mosquito Knees" is absolutely gripping.

Hearing Jack DeJohnette lay down a groove never gets old.

Ahh yes its excellent. John, have them all =  the vinyls & the CD's. He is my favorite beside Shorty Rogers BB.

In addition to the official  CD above  there has been  a broadcast from that Matinee at Villa Berg on May 13, 2001  with some more tracks which do not appear on that CD.  Have here a CD-.R copy  with that program  from my buddy in Berlin.

.... and some time ago I made another CD-R  for myself with material I  recorded from radio HR after his visit in Frankfurt, Germany. This was recorded at the HR studio at radio Frankfurt.
