Naima Live Session in 1990 [review only]




A comment from a user asked about the quality of this one of which I was unaware and I was intrigued since of course the ones we posted were from the same years, approximately. And indeed we get once again the beautiful European marriage of classical music and fusion that we always expect from the wonderful EU melting pot long before Britain so rudely decided to brexit.  Consider The Special Light:





And wait till you get to the last track-- a tour de force in truth for modern chamber fusionary composition.  Unfortunately preceding that one there are a couple of throwaway jazz standards or songs in the conventional 'swing' instrumental jazzy style that for most of us is so utterly yawn-provoking.  But these make the final track all the more worth your while.

Given this is a CD I will only have a dl briefly.  And thanks for drawing my attention to this little lost gem.  As a bonus and due to requests I will post a brief trip to planet Ramo too before the powers that be demand it be removed.
