Misha Mengelberg, Steve Lacy, George Lewis, Arjen Gorter, Han Bennink - Change of Season (Music of Herbie Nichols) (Soul Note, 1985)

Superb .... at least....

This is a rare ESP Disk album by the not too well known drummer James Zitro. 
It is a wonderful example of typical NY so called "Free Jazz" , recorded in 1967.

I have a special affinity to this because it´s the first recording of one my prime musical inspirations here in Europe, the American in Europe Allan Praskin (as). 

This is 60´s avantgarde jazz at it´s best and all the musicians are great.

Warren Gale (tp), Bert Wilson (ts) have great skills , the bass is superb and almost reaches the heights of inspiration of Henry Grimes. 

And the leader himself, drummer James Zitro is fascinating. It´s really a good recording sound, you really hear what the drummer plays, he is amazing. 

Allan Praskin already had his wonderful sound on as, the kind of alto sound I love most, as much as I like to listen to Jackie McLean or to Jimmy Lyons with Cecil Taylor.

Pianist Michael Cohen is superb. That´s the way it should sound. 

Those are musicians, who know exactly what they do and where they are at. 

There should have been more.

That reads like a dream team ! 

ten to Two blues......there was one album of Dusko that was titled "After Hours" and as much as I remember it had also a stellar band. But I had only two tunes taped on casetofon from radio, back then in 1977 or so. 
I wanted to buy the CD some years ago, but it´s for an astronomic price......., well I still think I have the music in mind, one of it might have be a blues, and one was "Those were the Days", I think that´s what I had on the casetofon.

It is exactly the same album. It was issued as "Ten To Two Blues" by the Spanish label Ensayo, and as "After Hours" by Enja, both in 1971. Subsequent LP and CD reissues have followed the same guidelines.

Indeed it is. Not sure why ‘Fellini 712’ is classified as a ‘Latin Adventure’ but not complaining.

😉 .... but at least all "latin sides" (ommiting some tracks from the Rearwad Box ?) are in there ,,,,

Hardly got any listening in over the holiday and yesterday because my wife had a lot of time off and had a long list of things for me to do. Got most of them done.

Starting off with a favorite I just can't keep out of the player for too long.

"Secret Ellington"
