it from its modern, British origin and experimental without going beyond certain limits. Among his experiences we can mention: Gyroscope, in which John Mclaughlin also played, the long association with Helen Merrill and the presence in Nucleus during the two-year period '73:74."

Pay Now, Live Late/' revives a concert at Bass Clef from 1985, a London club that the double bass player Peter lnd kept open for a decade. Beck offered himself as a trio, with Dave Green and Spike Wells, both in a quintet, with the addition of saxophonists Ray Warleigh and lain

Ballamy, proposing a repertoire of his compositions, a sort of retrospective that began in the 1960s. ln in general, the sound flow is very dynamic, with a few more points of suspension in the formation threesome, a classic formula but here he never expresses himself in stock

phrases. In the Septet tracks balance reigns and a strong sense of sharing among the participants, with excellent rhythmic cues in Sunbird and in the contrasting and intense Nice One. The title track is unreleased, as it is a theme never appeared previously on record, and it is

anything but a waste, while At The Edge belongs to Allan Holdsworth, with whom Beck he released four albums. (Google translate)

Review of Aurora by SAROST from Piercarlo Poggio in the February issue of Blow Up magazine #333 (in Italian but here via google translate): "A tough trio of old acquaintances, ready to irrigate the field of improvisation with invigorating sap. "Aurora" is a studio test that for

intensity and harshness which has the identical dynamics of a live session. Larry Stabbins and his saxophones express themselves with great effectiveness, in an extremely changing range of sensations. Drums and percussion by Mark Sanders in a flume of stones rolling with variable

speed, sometimes overwhelming, other times with barely perceptible movement. Paul Rogers loves to play his self-designed seven string bass with the bow, in order to render the sound even more enveloping and stretched. Even though they have known each other for a long time and

having crossed paths in various contexts, this is their first trio record. A first fruit that will make fans happy of the British Jazz, now orphaned by too many musicians of that remarkable one scene."
