This is a long shot, but I'm starting to dip my toes, very gingerly into the murky waters of improvised music courtesy of the Wire Primer ( I know, I know..) and I've ordered "London Concert" that is meant to be the two of them at their peak. Two questions to the assembled big brain collective.. 1)Anyone know why they fell out so spectacularly? The book hints at rumours flying around, but...

It's important to point out that this is Peter Brotzmann entirely solo on various reeds because, with this particular advocate of the free, the solo context has always amounted to something entirely different to his group work. As an unaccompanied soloist, he has always been an antithesis of {{Evan Parker = 10117}}'s seamless flow on soprano sax in particular, as if Brotzmann's accommodation within...

For every artist that has achieved international attention via the exposure of ECM Records, there are countless others who seem to have been lost beneath the cracks. German trumpeter Manfred Schoof, who recorded three superb albums for the ECM-affiliated JAPO label in the 1970s, was a member of the freewheeling Globe Unity Orchestra alongside {{Peter Brotzmann = 5331}}, {{Evan Parker = 10117}}, {{Kenny...

My sole Globe Unity LP, issued on Po Torch in 1977 and a rather good one. Side one, "Jahrmarkt" was recorded in '75 and has a stellar cast that includes Evan Parker, Brotzmann, Braxton and the mighty trombone trio of Christmann, Rutherford and Mangelsdorff. It's a bit murky and clunky but, by and large, a decent semi-structured free-for-all. Still, the rewards are to be found on Side B, "Local...
