Ah, no - of course it is Alexander von Schlippenbach featuring Weasel Walter... Loving the photo on the left. One of Europe's premier free jazz bandleaders, pianist Alexander von Schlippenbach's music mixes free and contemporary classical elements, with his slashing solos often the link between the two in his compositions.
And of course it is Frank Wright featuring Weasel Walter as well. Very nice photo on the right, too, huh ? He is maybe one of the most "underground" of all free-jazz musicians. His style displayed little of Ayler's populist and folkish overtones (ok, this is a bit snappish) while harking back to Charlie Parker's agile delivery (this can be heard). Get them here:
Alexander von Schlippenbach (feat. Weasel Walter) - Solo Piano
Frank Wright (feat. Weasel Walter) - Center of the World
Enjoy !
