I went to the Roman Schwaller quartet tuesday night.
Roman Schwaller is one of the leading saxophonists here in Europe. He´s from Elvetia but lives in Viena.
He recorded with name musicians like Johnny Griffin and hundrets of others and is a great composer and arranger also.
The first time I had heard him was jammin with Sonny Stitt, when Roman still was very young and had played with the Viena Art Orchestra.
He had a very talented young bassist from Serbia, my favourite Oliver Kent on piano and my favourite Mario Gonzi on drums.
Interesting, they did a lot of Monk tunes that evening, like "Trinkle Tinkle" and so on.
And an astonishing medium tempo swing version of "For Heaven´s Sake" which is usually done as a ballad, at least that´s how I had played it once.
After the show Roman told me that he had heard Joe Lovano doing it that way.If I go to a show just for my pleasure for listening, I always sit as near to the drummer as possible, because I love to hear the drums loud and also feel it from the bottom....
👍😁
I know Roman Schwaller. Nice that you can see him live. I think I have him as member of some groups. Have to check that.
Have a question: did he ever record something under his name as group leader?
Question solved. Found some on Discogs.

So I convinced my friend to join me to go hear Horace and his quintet. It was a marvelous evening of outstanding music. To the best of my recollection, that was the only time I had the opportunity to hear The Horace Silver Quintet. Though it was over 60 years ago, it is a memory I cherish.
😁👍 You cant have enough "Silver'.
This box is really good

Well I like the early Shearing & his quintet when I started collection in the 1960s. His Everest & most MGM recordings are here. He was a fine bebopper with a feeling for good melodies. Pete Rugulo did an interesting composition "Rugolo meets Shearing" on a Mercury LP.
BTW I have 2 different 12" editions of "You're hearing George Shearing" (MGM E 3706 & MGM E 3216) and would like to see the tracks from the copy above. Is that a 10" edition?
Here are my 2 versions (with different tracks)
