Music Is Here: Live at Studio 104, Maison De La Radio (ORTF), Paris 1973

Live performance from cult jazz artist Freddie Hubbard recorded in 1973 at Maison de la radio (ORTF) in Paris, which was released for the first time for Record Store Day, is now available on CD. It has been remastered from the original tapes with liner notes by Kevin le Gendre with contribution by Michael Carvin. "We actually got the lightning in a bottle, we caught the magic.we caught it" says Michael Carvin reminiscing about the concert recorded by the Freddie Hubbard in Paris on a Spring night of1973. In early 1973, after years of working with the cream of the CTI stable of musicians for his albums and concerts Hubbard decided to put together a new quintet consisting of Junior Cook on sax, Kent Brinkley on bass, pianist George Cables and drummer Michael Carvin. The quintet, left for Europe to hone their skills as a unit. The music they created during that tour, as showcased on this live performance recorded in Paris, is nothing but extraordinary and unlike anything Hubbard had recorded for CTI. The musicians are heard here playing four recent Hubbard classics: 'Sky Dive', 'The Intrepid Fox', 'Povo' and 'First Light' in a very different style: the music here is deep and organic, retaining the quintessence of the four beautiful melodies and stretching them in long, spiritual work outs powered by Cables' Fender Rhodes electric piano and Michael Carvin's powerful drumming.
