Hal Galper : Now Hear This

Hal Galper : Now Hear This.

Recorded at CI Sound Studios, NY, 15th Febuary 1977.

Hal Galper : Piano
Cecil McBee : Bass
Terumasa Hino : Trumpet
Tony Williams : Drums

Stunning, heavy weight jazz from this stellar line-up. "First song of the Day", as with all the Galper orignals on this album, is the bomb! Check out Mcbee's solo supported by Williams, severe gears.

Live! New Herd 76/45

Live! New Herd 76/45
DOR-0030

7th DAM Original Live Recording
Daichi Katerderki Audio Members Club

All Japanese text on this one, so the information is limited. 3 killer big band tracks, all centered around a sublime version of John Coltrane's A love Supreme. Plenty of percussive breaks, bouncing basslines and big brass sounds abound.

Hot ...
