Belated best wishes to the 75th birthday!

Heard this group/pogramme live twice, and both were amazing concerts ... first spin of the CD, it works nicely as well, but is completely different (not sure if it comes from live recordings or was made in studio conditions during gigs in Warsaw).

[king ubu]

This one really grows on me ... may initially sound warm (think Haden, though Frisell himself has done this kinda stuff, too) and rather conservative/restrained for Cyrille fans, but it is full of wondrous detail as far as his drumming goes, and Teitelbaum (on synth and occasionally on piano, too) makes sure things don't ever get too comfortable, while Cyrille is constantly undermining everything anyway - at least if you have ears to listen. Really interesting - and enjoyable - album.
