Yeah that’s a great one. That’s Dutch drummer Martin van Duynhoven on drums. Mal played with some excellent local music back then, not only on Holland but also in France and Germany. 

Thought I recognized the drummer's name – he's on some fantastic records with Theo Loevendie. Any recommendations for other Mal recordings with European musicians? Off the top of my head, I recall some of his 70s quintet records having some great European players on them (Moods, Hard Talk, etc.) and I'm certainly interested in hearing more from that period, especially sessions that are on the more obscure side like Number Nineteen seems to be.

Harry Miller's leader stuff is SO good in my opinion, really underappreciated I feel, that's a fantastic record with some of the best UK players of the era, hard to ever go wrong with Mike Osborne!

Totally agree.  I like how the music flows and flows -- and then modulates into terrific, polyphonic climaxes. ... Keith Tippett's piano is also outstanding.

The lovely Ms Spalding left her basses at home for this one. I like it.

I always had a soft spot for Wycliffe Gordon's playing.

I don't know why I've been in such a groove for 60s-70s big band but oh well...

I started a thread for the era semi-recently. Still interest in any recommendations.
