Avantgarde/experimental jazz from 1970. Released on the tiny JG label. Very, very rare recording.
German jazz label established in 1969 by a collection of jazz friends involved in the "Aktion jazz69" festival. The initials JG stand for "Jazz Grooves". The label was owned and run by one Karlheinz Klüter during the 1970s.
Amongst its early releases were documents of the Internationales New Jazz Meeting Auf Burg Altena festivals, and later the famous Balver Höhle concerts.
Ulrich Balss, producer with JG-Records in their later years, went on to establish the related JA&RO records and then Jaro.
