Rev. Frank Wright tenor sax, double bass, voice.Ogun is extremely proud to present a previously unreleased recording documenting a one-off collaboration between members of The Blue Notes and tenor sax giant The Reverend Frank Wright. Recorded live in Eindhoven, Holland on what was meant to be the opening night of The Blue Notes’ Dutch tour in 1979, the
collaboration was spawned by the unavoidable absence of pianist Chris McGregor and prompted by Louis
Moholo-Moholo’s experience of playing alongside Frank in Peter Brotzmann’s Alarm.
The tour of Holland proved prolific for The Blue Notes – another Dutch date is set for future release on
Ogun – but this meeting of musical titans could not be left in the vaults. Great empathetic performances
and an engrossing listen.Ogun Recording Ltd.
