Ich krieg das ja leider nicht hin mit dem zeitnahmen Hören und Beschreiben von Neuheiten, bin drum hier fast verstummt – aber das muss ich jetzt doch schnell kommentarlos (weil ich’s noch nicht kenne) vermelden, weil: Wow! Einfach: Wow!
Hal Russell & Joel Futterman
The Chicago Riverreleases August 26, 2022
On 1992 after the great flood of the Chicago River legendary icon of jazz/improvised music master Hal Russell and great Joel Futterman did a large, two days performance for the victims of the cataclysm. It was pyrotechnic, but at the same time full of fire, lyric, and abstract flavor concerts. We are honored that Joel decide to release this long-awaiting music in full length without any overdubs on our label. Over 3 hours of music on 3 CDs!
