Solo sax.
David Murray performing tenor saxophone solo pieces live in Paris in 1978. He plays both original compositions as well as standards, all with passion and personality. Solo material from two concerts were released on three different labels, Cadillac, Horo and this one on Palm, which was recorded by Jef Gilson. He founded Palm in 1973. Not easy to find titles on this label but I have managed to acquire three so far.
I’ve been exploring several solo jazz recordings lately and I really enjoy the format. I feel that it adds nerve to the performance of a player, especially live. It highlights the artists capabilities in a beautiful way. Will keep exploring and I have at least one other solo performance high on the want list going forward.
