Akira Sakata ended the concert yesterday, playing some melody that I felt was very Albert Ayler-like. So, I'm starting this day with the only Albert Ayler CD I have, namely "Spirits Rejoice". A live without audience recording.

I had to run 1.2 km (because I'm stupid) to make it in time for the Arashi concert at Kaffe Hærverk, but it was well worth it.

Free jazz and enthusiastic recitation of Japanese fairy tales (apparently) make a good combination.

#disque du jour, bonjour !

#Arashi with #TakeoMoriyama • Tokuzo (Trost, 2024)

https://akirasakata.bandcamp.com/album/tokuzo

Trio composé de #AkiraSakata, un saxophoniste inconnu de mes oreilles, #JohanBerthling, bassiste qui officie au sein de #Fire et #FireOrchestra, et du batteur #PaalNilssenLove, qu'on retrouve chez #TheThing ou #TerritoryBand, rejoints par un second batteur, #TakeoMoriyama, inconnu de mes oreilles lui aussi. Et clairement, on a du bon, du très bon #FreeJazz. Bref, jeter une oreille sur cette excellentissime album.
