"In the early '70s, Belgian improvisor Fred Van Hove released three LPs on the Vogel label. These recordings, issued in very small quantities, have become some of the most sought-after and difficult to find items in the canon of European improvised music. Even some of the hardest-digging vinyl freaks haven't heard of these treasures- let alone own them. Compiling the two solo Vogel records (
Fred Van Hove
and
Live At The University
) and one record of duets with tenor saxophonist Cel Overberghe (
Een Tweede Vogel
), as well as an even rarer 7-inch 45 by Van Hove and Overberghe,
Complete Vogel Recordings
offers a rare document of one of the greatest pianists in free music from a particularly fertile period in his career. In addition to the tenor/piano duets, the record with Overberghe includes some musique concrete and overdubbed parts, with the saxophonist on bass and drums and Van Hove on organ;
Live At The University
features Van Hove on conventional piano, but also performing his special prepared piano improvisation with ping-pong balls on the strings."
