Some words on this issue: CHERRY, DON & PENDERECKI: “Actions” (Philips/ Nippon Gramophon – RJ-5071) Ultra rare Japanese 1st pressing with always and hardly ever seen obi present. First time I ever see a copy with obi intact. Recorded live in 1971 at Donaueschingen, “Actions” featured the “New Eternal Rhythm Orchestra”, a loosely knot group or collective especially erected for this event to operate and explore the boundaries of sonic unexcavated territories and under the guidance and direction of Krystzof Penderecki and Don Cherry. The collective's line-up is a bit mouth-watering by today's standards since it was a veritable who's who of the then emerging European Free Jazz scene with in its ranks Peter Brotzmann, Willem Breuker, Paul Rutherford, Han Bennink, Terje Rypdal, Kenny Wheeler and Tomasz Stanko to name but some of the key players. Don Cherry was also by that time emerging and profiling himself as an advocate of a new musical language erected upon sonic freedom, which he spiced up with different musical and cultural influences that would come to color his musical DNA. Hence the echoes of Turkish folk and classical Indian rhythms on Cherry's pieces “Sita Rama Encores” interspersed with explosive passages of free fire playing. The Penderecki piece “Actions for Free Jazz Orchestra” explores the balance between composition and improvisation in a less playful yet no less meaningful way. Drones and extended techniques (such as overblowing) merge seamless into brass chords which hang in the air. Many episodes showcase that much anticipated explosive playing and fusion between jazz and composition, especially escalating in guitarist Terje Rypdal and saxophonist Brotzmann's excursions into uncharted territories

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
