Another Pierre Dørge’s nugget

 

I searched for and found a minty copy of this Steeplechase’s made in Denmark pressing by one of my most beloved “guitar voices” ever.




Like on many of the first PD’s discs, John Tchicai is also present: no surprise as Mr. Dørge was a fervent follower and scholar of the great saxophonist.

The music is adventurous and unique - whose Northern-flavor is so unfettered by bop and blues traditions - and the superb recording is well magnifying nuances and dynamics.

An humble buried treasure which would deserve more esteem.
