The legendary Joseph Holbrooke trio is thought to be one of the first English free-music bands, forming in the early/mid 60s, and basically leaving no recorded traces before the three musicians involved all went on to well known careers.
Comprising three of the most acclaimed virtuosos from the first generation of British improvisers, little has been released, but they briefly reformed in 1998 and the studio recordings from that period were made available in 2006 on Tzadik as “The Moat Recordings.”
“Last Live 2001” is exactly that—their last live concert ever! Recorded in Antwerp in January of 2001, the ensemble is at their exploratory best in this newly discovered gem from the archives of composer/improviser maestro Gavin Bryars.”
