One of the first true moments of genius from saxophonist Nathan Davis - a mid 60s European session cut for the tiny SFP label - and a record that's even rarer than his early classics for MPS! The sound here is similar to the MPS sides - a mixture of soul jazz and modal jazz - served up with a bit more freedoms than Davis might have gotten on the US scene, and featuring a lineup that includes Woody Shaw on trumpet, Jean-Louis Chautemps on baritone sax, Rene Urtreger on piano, Jimmy Woode on bass, and Kenny Clarke on drums. The tight rhythm of Woode and Clarke is a nice counterpoint to the modernism of Davis and Shaw - Davis works a bit on soprano, which sounds especially great! Titles include "Peace Treaty", "Klook's Theme", "Now Let M' Tell Ya", "Kansas City Special", and "Sconsolato". CD features 2 bonus tracks - "Sconsolato (quintet)" and "Kansas City Special (quintet)" - both recorded by an smaller group with Jimmy Gourley on guitar, and without the trumpet and baritone sax.

nunne, you've been posting some lulus and this is certainly one of them
thanks
awesome! and hard to believe this is an LP rip, such fine quality.
this is a *great* record.
Great! I only had Nathan Davis' MPS album from this European period. Thanks a lot!
I am excited to hear this.. It's downloading right now. I hope you realize how much this is appreciated. I would like to give something back to you that you may not have.
It's a live performance of the Evan Parker/Alexander Schlippenbach/Paul Lytton trio that was recorded in Portland, OR at the 411 Club. The sound quality is amazing and Evan's circular breathing solo is astounding. Please check out my blog at http://eclectic-grooves.blogspot.com for this and other gems.
Best, Kevin

I must to say the cheese drives me crazy, I approach every time for eat cheese and I add in my recipes all the time. I read some days ago the cheese have many properties and vitamin. The most important thing is the potassium and calcium the cheese contain. I am sure that When i buying my house through costa rica homes for sale i will prepare a dinner for all my friends and I will add many cheese. That will be wonderful.
