John Surman Trio/France 1971

A rare live performance of The Trio, formed by John Thurman, who took the European jazz world by storm with his amazing speed and power on the baritone saxophone, along with Burl Phillips and Stu Martin, has been rebroadcast. Items recorded for the first time from broadcast sound sources of the highest quality have appeared. The year before this performance, they made their debut with the trio’s masterpiece album “The Trio”. Many jazz critics consider this debut album to be Thurman’s best album. The live performance recorded at the 1971 Avignon Festival in France that was released this time includes not only their debut work but also songs from their second album released the following year. Their live performances are full of intense power that transcends established genres such as jazz and rock, and you can listen to performances that are far different from the studio version. Moreover, if the sound quality is so high that you can mistake it for the official version, you have no choice but to get it. A historical masterpiece has arrived!
