DEREK BAILEY, JOHN ZORN, SABU TOYOZUMI

Tokyo 1987 [no label, 1CD]

Live at the Café Romantische, Tokyo, Japan; November 21, 1987. Fairly to very good audience recording.

Thanks to firusan for sharing the show at Dime.

firusan noted:

Given that John Zorn lived in Tokyo for a number of years, it’s surprising that there aren’t many recordings from that period, as I assume he must have been playing frequently. This is the only one that I have ever found that I got in a great trade a while back (Thanks Mike!). It’s a nice sounding trio set with Zorn, Derek Bailey and Japanese drummer Sabu Toyozumi. I always find Sabu really shines in these kind of small group improv settings and Derek and John sound… like Derek and John. The recording is pretty good, though a bit harsh on the high end.
