Faced with diminishing opportunities in the U.S. to play and record jazz in the 1960s, saxophonist Phil Woods moved to Europe in the spring of 1968. Based in Paris, he quickly formed the now-legendary group called Phil Woods and The European Rhythm Machine, with Swiss pianist George Gruntz and two Frenchmen, bassist Henri Texier and drummer Daniel Humair. Their first record, Alive And Well In Paris was recorded in the same year for the Pathe label, followed by the present album Woods Notes recorded live in Rome in 1969 and released by an Italian label called Joker. Based on bebop and having absorbed modal jazz and even jazz rock, this group was at the cutting edge of jazz at the time, and their incredible power and excitement are awe-inspiring. Newly remastered in Japan based on the original mono master tapes, this reissue CD is a must-have item for fans of Phil Woods! Recorded live in Rome, 1969. This Japanese reissue CD released by Studio Songs in May 2014. Mono. Personnel: Phil Woods (alto sax) George Gruntz (piano) Henri Texier (bass) Daniel Humair (drums) tracklist: 01 - Freedom Jazz Dance 02 - Stolen Moments 03 - Alive And Well
