Carla Bley Band-Italy (September 3, 1977)
The Carla Bley Band
Festival "Jazz ad Alassio"
Alassio, Italy
September 3rd, 1977
Audience recording
A concert that stuck in my mind, and now that I've digitized the tape, I hope you can enjoy it.
In my opinion this edition ("The European Tour 1977") remains among the best bands Carla has ever led.

Carla is a music giant. And this surely a great early Easter present. Thanks a million once more.
I am SOOOOO in love with Carla Bley.
Such cerebral music but never ever pretentious. Not selfish either which is kind of a drag because she has such great chops.
Gotta love that red sweater.
Thanks for posting this show.
One friend said me, "she is the greatest fuck skeleton in the story of the American jazz ", I have been listening some of her songs since my father give one of Carla's albums, it was called "The Carla Bley Big Band Goes to Church"22dd
This is great music!
