:: BrÖtz no. 907 — Ericson Klapper Fite + Perkis Raskin Sandell
Improvised music with a direct connection to the roots. Martin Klapper was already on the field in the 90s when he participated in the legendary Company Weeks organized by Derek Bailey. Among his many collaborations, the duo with Roger Turner stands out as one of the most important - "Resourceful, these fellows - aren't they", as the same Bailey said of them with a typical British understatement.
