I would be interested in hearing these.  I know him only through his score to Antonioni's La Notte.

Both are very good indeed, I think you'd enjoy them.

Thanks.  I remembered I have one more, Un Amore.  I'll see if I can find online rips of those LPs.

Does the quartet get much exposure on that or is it predominantly the orchestra and chorus?

I will have to revisit.  I picked these up during an Italian/French soundtrack buying spree, and a lot of them run together.  I seem to recall at lease some jazz content.  I'll report back.

never had the top one; Nuovi Sentimenti is an all-timer for me.

I like Trovesi, but don't have the one pictured. Just when I thought I was mostly done collecting records...

at this point I can mostly only afford CDs. They too take up a lot of space and I'm not allowed to fill the *entire* house

Of the 37-minute Un Amore album, about 15 minutes' worth is jazz, generally of a minimal, abstract variety, played by a quartet.  There are also a couple of pop tunes, some orchestral, and some minimal pieces with percussion, the latter of which may intersect with jazz interests.

Thank you TTK, certainly sounds like I should hear it

I also think I never heard him, but is it possible that somewhere I read that he was deeply influenced by Thelonious Monk ? That might be great.....

Oh this is a nice cover foto of those little animals we called „ștrumfii” in our childhood. From the instruments I guess it is trumpet, piano, fender-bass and drums, is it ? 

As little as I understood Mr. Corea´s affinity to that kind of sectă where they take your money and so, as much I dug his music. 
During the first half of the 70´s of course there was RTF, but as early then I must admit that from the two Ex-Miles-Keaboardists electric groups I preferred the Herbie Hancock "Headhunters" which I found more "black" and more "funky" . But Chick Corea was a helluva musician, as much electric as acoustic.....

In English, they're SMURFs. 

The instrumentation is actually Chick Corea (el-p, p), Joe Farrell (saxes & fl), Eddie Gomez (b), and Steve Gadd (d).

I like the record. It's nothing earth-shattering, but -- like the title implies -- it's a relaxed, enjoyable session.  

 

 

Giving this another spin:

Association P.C. - Erna Morena (MPS, 1973)

This band was led by drummer Pierre Courbois, but -- for this listener -- Jasper van 't Hof is the hero of this album. 

EDIT:
And here's the other sleeve photo by Jochen Mönch that @soulpope mentioned previously:

Next up:

The Alegre All-Stars - Way Out, Vol. IV (Alegre, 1965)

This just arrived in the mail yesterday.  Holy mackerel, it sounds GOOD -- both musically and AQ-wise.  The album has been well-loved; it's in far-from-perfect condition.  But the music just LEAPS out of the speakers.
