05-CY 992LP
A great price on this beautiful, legitimate reissue of a rare 1980 FMP vinyl set that documented a one time concert event in August 1979, when East German musicians were invited to perform a three-day festival in West Berlin.
“Billed as "Jazz Now," this landmark meeting was recorded and initially released in a limited edition.
From stunning duos to challenging small-group performances, from large rave-ups to Mingus nods, Snapshot: Jazz Now Jazz Aus Der DDR provides much more than that name suggests. It's as complete a portrait of jazz in the GDR as one is ever likely to find, and a moment in time that continues to reverberate -- via these sounds -- today.”
