The legendary NJO has few issued recordings to its name, much to the shame of the British recording industry. I applaud Dusk Fire for their efforts to gain a commercial release for this historic document. Other reviewers have expressed concern about the audio quality. The accompanying notes explain the clean-up job which had to be done to the original 2-track tape but, while it is not perfect, the sound is not noticeably distorted, most of the instruments can be heard just fine and overall the effect is no worse than many other officially released live recordings. Even listening to it on headphones (the real challenge, in my view), my ears adjusted to the sound pretty rapidly because the music just blew me away.
Many of the finest British jazz players ever to grace a stage are here. Excellent compositions old and 'new' by Mike Taylor, Jack Bruce, Coltrane, Davis and others; breathtaking arrangements by Neil Ardley and Mike Gibbs; top-notch solos by the likes of Harry Beckett, Dick Heckstall-Smith, Henry Lowther and Barbara Thompson; informative notes by Dave Gelly who played that day… Oh, and if you needed further convincing, Colosseum in their entirety are also present and correct as part of the line-up - and it works seamlessly. If you care about British jazz and want to hear the benchmark for excellence, you should buy this recording now.
