A live recording from Rouen, France, On Tour, representation of the Kollektief in the late '70s. Several of Breuker's regular touchstones are covered, including tight, rhythmic crowd-pleasers like "Hullie & Zullie" and "Florida," more expansive, jazzier pieces like "Antelope Cobbler," and bits of hilarity, here a mock country & western called "Potsdamer Stomp." the Kollektief always featured some of the finest soloists around and, among others, altoist Bob Driessen, trumpeter Boy Raaymakers, and trombonist Willem van Manen deliver the goods here.

(A slightly muffled recording quality), It's good, but not clear.

  3. I love this LP. Well, maybe not the best edition Kollektief and something slightly worse was recorded sound, but it has that certain something insane what I like about Breuker.
