Coxhill, Lol/pierre Courbois/jasper Van 't Hof
Toverbal Sweet
Fully licensed, limited to 500 copies. Released on cultish London based label Mushroom in 1972, this album brought together the anarchic genius of saxophone player Lol Coxhill, with the pure magic of a Dutch rhythm section: Pierre Courbois on the drums and keyboard player Jasper van 't Hof. A clash of the titans as a matter of fact, with the more classical and impro sounding lines of Coxhill and the straight - almost jazz-rock - harmonies of the other two players. A fascinating record comparable to Keith Tippett small groups and the rise of the most peculiar impro-jazz scene.
