FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
The first edition was released in 1982 on Enja. A later German repress followed, identifiable by the DMM and Teldec logos on the back and a changed label design. The scans of this copy show which version it is.

Where was the album recorded?
Live at the Munich jazz club Vielharmonie over two nights in December 1981. The album Out Like A Light comes from the same concerts.

What does Media NM- / Cover VG+ mean?
NM- (Near Mint minus) means the record is close to new with at most minimal signs of play. VG+ (Very Good Plus) means the sleeve shows light wear. All grades are explained on our Vinyl Grading page.
