The label (PGP RTB) has used oportunity to invite some foreign musicians during their visit to Belgrade to do a recording jam-session with a local jazz musicians and here are the results. All of them are now established names. Bosko Petrovic at that time was a student but was already leading his trio and Zagreb Jazz Quartet. Davor Kajfes was another member of ZJQ. All foreign guests this time came to Belgrade in 1960 with Quincy Jones band.

The most obscure group in this great 3-volume Meetings In Studio series -- a session that features work by an all-Eastern European jazz ensemble from 1961 -- Borislav Rokovic on piano, Joe Sydow on bass, Hans Hoitz on drums, Milan Stojanivic on tenor and flute, and Vojislav Djonovic on guitar. Tracks are short and tight -- nicely grooving in a laidback way that recalls some of the hipper RCA jazz sessions of the mid 50s.

Enjoy!
