Fürwahr ein schöner Fund!

Mein Album des Tages habe ich seit einiger Suche heute aus den Niederlanden erhalten:

CHICK COREA – The Sun (1970)
Fantastisches Free Jazz Album, das nur in Japan veröffentlicht wurde, gehört für mich zum besten, an dem Corea beteiligt ist.

Steve Grossman- tenor sax and chinese musette
Chick Corea – piano
Dave Holland – bass
Jack DeJonette – drums
Steve Jackson – Miscellaneous Instrument

An der Stelle zitiere ich mal Mats Gustafson, der diese LP auf seiner Homepage vor einiger Zeit empfohlen hat:

Holland and DeJohnette are in amazing form, gushing and flowing freely but also with an amazing timing and feel.. An amazing pairing. It is quite a telepathic interplay here. One of the strongest drums & bass pairings ever in the history in jazz and improvised music.

Steve Grossman is playing highly creative and with great imagination.

Grossman is one of the most underrated tenor voices and this recording is for sure one of hís most essential work.

An extremely interesting period in the jazz history with some insane free playing! Inside… and outside. It is all there!

The hardest to get in the extensive Corea discography. And according to DC – the ONE to get from a musical and historical standpoint!
