Yes. It was recorded at Onkel Pö in Hamburg, one of the best-known German jazz and music clubs of the 1970s. The venue is not named on the sleeve.

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