Good one. Caught him a few times in Old Town, Chicago.He had Phil Porter on organ - only time I had seen that name was on a Howard McGhee record from 1962.

I really like Sherman Morrison’s work on here. He doesn’t seem to have recorded a lot and apparently gave it up when he became a minister.

Excellent (mostly) chordless free jazz trio session; the group is augmented with a pianist and an alto saxophonist on two tracks where they take on standards in a manner that is very delicate while still retaining the outside feel of the rest of the session. Oki is quite brilliant IMO and it's a shame that most of his recordings have languished in obscurity.

Itchy Fingers - Full English Breakfast (Enja, 1993)

I remember seeing them circa 1983 when they had just released the ‘Quark’ LP on Virgin. They had just won an award as best UK new jazz group.

Of the musicians, altoist Martin Speake went on to greater prominence.
