Drummers sparkle in the first hour of this edition of OMJ—Norway's Gard Nilssen with his Supersonic Orchestra, free jazz veteran Abbey Rader, and the iconoclastic RaKalam Bob Moses—plus a long track from some newly released music from the private stash of Sam Rivers. The second hour is a mix of styles, even including some blues from Buddy Guy. The final set has a definite European flavour with the eclectic foursome from Finland, Quartet Ajaton, saxophonist Laura Toxvaerd} from Denmark, and Polish guitarist Marek Malinowski, among others.
