I certainly knew ECM only fans as a youth, but that was the 1990s and by then ECM was a different beast altogether. I did not like Chick or Herbie's fusion things, nor did I like (with just a very few exceptions) the ECM recordings current listening below: Quote

The version of Harper's "Cry of Hunger" on this, with both of them soloing over tight orchestration, may be one of my favourite jazz tunes of the 70s. 👍 - as LP on my shelf, German record prize!

rostasi Posted August 10, 2023 Report Posted August 10, 2023 Yeah, seven tenor and soprano duets with a bit of pocket cornet thrown in and all recorded at the Chicago Cultural Center in '03. Quote

rostasi Posted August 11, 2023 Report Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) We Fell In Turn by Kalia Vandever contem-blaat-ive trombone (actually, it has less "blaat" than expected and more of an alphorn sound that adds smoothness if you can get over hearing "RICOLA®..." in your head).
