"Recorded a year after his acclaimed masterpiece, The Gentle Harm of the Bourgeoisie, these three festival sets are at least as good. They find Rutherford at his most original and inventive, making wild music by enhancing his trombone with his voice, with mutes and other objects, as well as using his awesome speed and stunning range. No one else has made the trombone sound like this, before or since. 75 minutes. (5 minutes originally on an FMP sampler -- the rest is previously unissued)."

.. Compositions for Euphonium and Trombone, recorded 1978-80. "To make his third solo album, Rutherford went into a studio with both trombone and euphonium and used over-dubbing techniques to create unique pieces involving up to four brass instruments. The only completely solo performance features the euphonium. A couple of short tracks feature the trombone played back at double speed -- one of them accompanied by a howling dog (the only other performer involved). This CD also includes two superb solo trombone improvisations recorded in Italian concerts a couple of years later. Reissue of SFA LP 092 with extra material."

"Rutherford's appearance at the Empty Bottle Festival was his first visit to America apart from two previous tours in orchestras. His 31 minute trombone solo shows him still to be at the top of his game. The following day he was asked to organise a septet with Jeb Bishop (trombone), Lol Coxhill (soprano saxophone), Mats Gustafsson (tenor saxophone), Fred Lonberg-Holm (cello & electronics), Kent Kessler (double bass) and Kjell Nordeson (percussion). They performed a concerto featuring Coxhill and a free improvisation. 77 minutes -- previously unissued."
