Toots Thielemans Jeff Berlin/Germany 1977

Belgian aristocrat with the title of Baron Thielemans, beloved by many jazz masters including Bill Evans and Jaco Pastorius, and the greatest jazz harmonica player, Toots Thielemans, has performed a stylish and wonderful live performance with his talented band! This album was released in 1977, at the height of Toots' popularity, when he was greedily incorporating elements of not only jazz but also various other genres of music, building his own style, gaining many fans, and becoming very popular. It features Jeff Berlin, a master of the fretless bass, who made Jaco say that he could not match him in technique, and Rob Franken, a famous keyboard player (mostly Fender Rhodes) from the Netherlands, known to those in the know as Mr. Fender Rhodes, who played mellow music and died at the young age of 42, and Rob Franken, a master keyboard player (mostly Fender Rhodes) from the Netherlands, who was known to those in the know as Mr. Fender Rhodes, and who was said to have been the basis of Toots' group without him, and Ricardo. A blissful item has arrived!
