JOHN SURMAN | JACK DeJOHNETTE — The Amazing Adventures of Simon Simon (1981) FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

John Surman (on baritone, soprano, bass clarinet and synthesizer) meets up with drummer Jack DeJohnette (who also plays congas and electric piano) for this typically introspective and spacy ECM set. Surman's playing (especially on baritone and bass clarinet) during nine group originals is worth hearing, but this is not one of his more essential outings. Scott Yanow
