Koni's Krone's

"To state the obvious, this could have been called "One and a Half Not One," since Konitz is absent on 23 of the 48 tracks. That said, it's a marvelous collection, much better recorded than a Marsh session like "The Big Two." I've finally appreciated Whitney Balliett's remark that Marsh in full flight can sound like a barnyard fowl swatted by a broom."
Excellent Marsh & Konitz with Pedersen

"Marsh and Konitz sound clear and vibrant, with Pedersen a strong complement on bass, in this live in Europe 1975 compilation. They're creative and expressive, both together and apart. Check out the haunting You Don't Know What Love Is, the counterpoint on Darn That Dream, what Marsh does with Parker's Confirmation, and Pedersen's adventurous solos. Other highlights include Old Folks, Foolin' Myself, and I Should Care."
