i think that i don’t like the organ, and then i pull a show like this out of long-term storage while loading up the usb drive for a trip.  this great show was shared by ‘frekem’ in sept 2010.

the closing concert of the international jazz festival amsterdam (de meervaart), sunday september 29th, 1985. dutch radio broadcasts: the whole concert (over one and a half hour) was recorded and later aired in separate broadcasts.

my [i.e., frekem’s] own tapings of the broadcasts. i kept the very first opening and last closing announcements of the late michiel de ruyter, who is also audible on stage in the end. short pauses (tape flips) occur in tracks 3 (at 4:30), 7 (at 0:08), and 10 (at 8:21). although some of the “unknown” tracks (or parts) (1, 5, 9, 10, and 11) sound familiar to me, i can’t grasp the tune titles right now. therefore, any additional info on this will be appreciated.

enjoy!
