In Berlin
Extremely serious and inventive, at the same time good-time music with rough edges, played by inspired musicians under the direction of Misha Mengelberg, recorded in a live set complete with weird interludes and tight ensemble sections - from mournful swing and traditional shuffle to raging improvisation. A timeless audio document that stands up to repeated listenings. This album is part of Be Jazz's reissue series of long-lost classics from the legendary vaults of FMP Records, presented in restored original packaging and newly remastered for optimal sound. Personnel: Misha Mengelberg: piano, Peter Brötzmann: saxophone, P. Bennink: saxophone, bagpipe, Van Bergeyck: saxophone, Tchicai: saxophone, Koppelaar: trombone, Honsinger: cello, Van Regteren Altena: bass, Han Bennink: drums, Waisvisz: crackle box. Recorded in Berlin, April 1977. Limited to 200 copies.
