Elton Dean's Ninesense – Happy Daze (Ogun, 1977)

Elton Dean (as, saxello); Alan Skidmore (ts); Harry Beckett (tr, flgn); Marc Charig (cor, tenor hn); Nick Evans (tb); Radu Malfatti (tb); Keith Tippett (p); Harry Miller (b); Louis Moholo (d)

Recorded on July 26, 1977

Incredibly powerful jazz from the Elton Dean's nonet. 

Music with Mingus-like intensity.
