the first time i listened to rypdal through this worthful broadcast and it blew literally my mind. it was in 1979 btw. he obviously used his 8-string strat at this concert. there are very less recordings with this instrument. especially the last two titles here (compositions from the descendre album) made me addicted to his sounds and playing. saw him one or two years later at the same club (which unfortunately doesn`t exist anymore since 1986:-(). rypdal is a unique genius and a monument in case of electric guitar and composition. unfortunately and ununderstandable ECM prohibits consequently every release of their recordings (on platforms like YT for instance). even the 40 years old ones. i can`t see the actual reason for such behaviour. the people who do not know rypdal yet shall not get in contact with his music? that doesn`t make any sence to me. it cannot be a question about selling records today, or? anyway - thnx for the upload of this pearl! btw - the club was `onkel pö`s carnegie hall` (not `po`:-))
Always great to have a recording of the wonderful Terje Rypdal and, of course, the equally brilliant Mikkelborg and Christensen (RIP).
Amazing treasure - one of my absolute favorite trios!
One of my favorite pieces, by one of my all-time favorite musicians, incomparable.
Wow!
