Great - there is no other music quite like this. I have a GUO concert from August this year (the Mulhouse free jazz festival) which I will post here within the next few days. Thanks

I do have this platter - a timely reminder to dig it out again. Thanks to both of ya. I'll see if I can't do a scan (or more precisely, a digital photo) of the backside once I'm back at home base again. Holed up in the Balkans at the moment.

Hi sotise,
I just came across by chance on this blog... what i have to say? Absolutely great! I'll spent some time researching the old posts, for sure!
About this one: I do have a great scan of both front & back sleeves, in a jpeg file. How can i send it to you to post it?
Cheers,
NM

nice one. I have that other JAPO-LP, Compositions, but it's not really that good. This is most likely better, and more in line with the other Globe Unity records. Thanks!

¡Excelente! ¡Muchas gracias! La serie Japo... Recuerdo en los 80 ver en un catálogo que venía dentro de un vinilo ECM... Nunca pensé que algún día podría oírlos...
Gracias... Muchas gracias...

re-up in mp3?

It's available as an official download f.e. https://www.qobuz.com/de-de/album/improvisations-1-4-globe-unity/0060252730738

Most ECM / JAPO releases are now downloadable - as it is ECM no mp3 available, though.

There's only one Globe Unity not available on CD and/or download from JAPO / ECM.
