This has been recorded JUST three months after I was born, and you know that I am a boring old fart, already, so... Can't believe the quality of both the recording AND music I am hearing. Simply stunning. No way a Jazz collection can exist without this. (ditch Bitches Brew, if you run out of space... )

Well done Stefan, that is the correct response to this masterpiece! Seriously, I'm really pleased you're enjoying this, as it has long been one of my favourite CDs. I played it again a couple of weeks ago after learning of Giuffre's recent death, and was stunned by how contemporary it sounded - it really could have been recorded yesterday. All of Giuffre's work with Bley and Swallow is worth checking out (try "Free Fall" next).

Meanwhile, I am listening to this new purchase for the first time:



Quirky jazz from Label Bleu - sounds extremely promising so far.

Nigel, thank for recommending Giuffre to me !

I intend to fill the gap in my collection with everything I can get a hand on, in the near future. Even, if "3" will turn out to be the masterpice...

cheers
Stefan

A World Circuit mid-priced sampler that was a freebie give away when you bought a full-priced disc back in the early 90s. Virtually nothing on this is still in print - a crying shame.
