I have the original version of this show posted in MP3. This is a definite upgrade both in encoding and in sound. This classic show has been Remastered by the team of Lewojazz and Tom Phillips. If you look at the details it was like a complete overhaul and the proof is in the listening! This is a great show that pays tribute to the musicianship of quite a few legends and the arrangement talents of Carla Bley. Charlie Haden is no slouch at writing and arranging great Jazz music, but chose Carla Bley to arrange his Protest Jazz Band's music. Carla's feel is all over this performance. Carla always loved the use of brass in her arrangements as well as odd timings that made all of Carla's music instantly identifiable as well as extremely entertaining. I haven't even touched on the deep well of talented performers enlisted to make this music, Paul Motian, Dewey Redman, Don Cherry, as well as Bley, and Haden and a list of top notch sidemen who's names may have faded a bit but are just as talented as the bigger names they sit next to...This is an awesome way to spend your Sunday Morning Jazz time! Enjoy my friends....
