Group

Live

Recorded live in 1986 at the Jazz Center of New York, The Group delivers an emotionally charged, vintage jazz experience with an "all-star" lineup: Ahmed Abdullah (trumpet), Marion Brown (alto sax), Billy Bang (violin), Sirone and Fred Hopkins (bass), and Andrew Cyrille (drums). Rescued from cassette tapes stored for 25 years, this album is packed with rich compositions, so it'd be unfair to label it simply as just free jazz. Highlights include a haunting rendition of 'Goodbye Pork Pie Hat' and an uplifting 25-minute take on Miriam Makeba's 'Amanpondo.' Simply marvelous stuff.
