the first italian group of modern jazz known and appreciated also out of Italy.
Forty years ago, june 9, 1970, with a quartet composed by some of the best italian jazz players, he had a concert in Milan at Centro Pirelli. The tapes of that performance were forgotten for years. In 1996 a limited edition (500 CD and 500 LP) were issued form the original tapes.
In 2009 a new limited edition was issued with the same numbers.
