great album
And now for something completely different:
The listed credits are incorrect: Art Lange wrote the liner notes and Peter Kuhn was the recording engineer, nonetheless not bad at all for a Cecil Taylor release.
It is probably more classical (contemporary) than Jazz, or? But if you love double bass this for you
Sasha Witteveen - Composer Foley, Xavier Dubois

New discovery on Qobuz. Featuring over 2 hours of some of Gil Evans best work from throughout his career, this makes for a great introduction to Gil Evans’ work as well as for some fantastic listening. Highly recommended!
