Rare Finnish early 70s jazz re-issued. Taken from Eero Koivistoinen: For
Children (OTALP72).
Wonderfully tripped-out work from Finnish tenor giant Eero Koivistoinen -- the
first album recorded with his legendary Music Society group, and a strong
departure from his straight jazz debut! The group here is expanded from before
-- with guitar from both Jukka Tolonen and Attilla Berger, plus three different
keyboardists who work on piano and electric piano -- often used in a slightly
elliptical way to add a sense of spaciness to the tunes. Eero's still very
firmly in the lead on tenor and soprano sax -- and other players include Mike
Koskinen on trumpet, Pekka Sarmanto on bass, and Esko Rosnell on drums -- the
latter two of whom provide a good pulse on the more upbeat numbers. Eero
composed the entire record, and the tunes are a mixture of gentler soundpieces
and others that groove a bit more -- including his legendary "Boots & Roots",
presented here with a lesser-known second part, "Roots & Boots"! Other tracks
include "Five Blue Tones", "Bitter Sweet", "Folk Song", the 3-part suite "For
Children".
