here’s toots thielemans’ european quartet live in oosterhout.  this was actually just posted on dime by “dutch_master” earlier this year (and it’s only 14 jan), but after a couple of listens i thought it should be one of few shows that get up here almost immediately.  a great recording by the late “old dutch master”!

the cover uses screenshots from youtube, and is a riff on the cover of the european quartet live cd (which has material from concerts in 2006, ’07 and ’08).

old dutch masters archives series:
the odm-archives series consists of recordings the odm made over the years.
he sadly passed awy on 17 april 2016. many of these recordings were just waiting
on a harddisk as he was depending on friends to prepare these for upload.
the man was just too busy working and visiting concerts.

    • Hi Pete,

      I have donwnloaded this one and some other very exciting shows from your blog today. Im very glad that I found your blog!
      Thank you very much for all this fine music in flac and not in mp3 as usual.

      • glad you like it, nick22.

        re mp3, thanks for the comment. it can be frustrating sometimes (though more & more, the mp3s are higher quality at least).

  2. This looks a very tasty set and some unusual choices from the norm from a master jazzman – thanks very much!

    • it’s a great show. one comment on dime noted that it ‘turned out to be a sort of “best of” performance’, which i thought was right on the mark.
