The album has emerged as Haffner and Co. 2007 opening for Nils Landgren Funk Unit (at the Haffner also sits on drums) on tour were. About half of the songs was recorded in Baden Baden, the others should be added A day later in Frankfurt. There you have but do not forget the ultimate red knobs and so had the next day at the Philharmonie in Berlin are added the rest. Magnum Coltrane Price, one of Landgren's musicians, is responsible for this magnificent recording.
Not only the finely drawn, sometimes sparingly, sometimes dramatically staged instruments make this (Nu-old-) jazz album terrific. The recording and Abmischqualität is outstanding. With eyes closed, you can assign each of the three musicians immediately spatially and feel their love for music. I hear Acoustic Shapes almost entirely consciously and not incidentally. And over and over again. Absolute Best Buy!
