Do any Terje Rypdal fans know what song the first 3:45 of this is from?

still plays mesmerizingly 4 decades later...

Anyone who ownes Paolo Vinaccia: Very much Alive and is willing to share it? The CD is way to overpriced on amazon at the moment. :(

Thanks, Terje!

His best is still Odyssey. I bought it on vinyl when it first came out (1975, ECM), have it on cd now and am still fascinated after all these years. For the guitarists out there: for effects he uses 2 Boss digital delays, 2 Boss overdrives, a TC Electronic compressor and a boss volume pedal, all loosely arrayed on the floor. No Pedal Train.

Superb,thanks.

Må herr Rypdal leve lenge i landet. En berikelse for folket.

An new extended version of the original LP "Odyssey" will be out on ECM in 2012 (2 x CD). Featuring the "lost" track "Rolling Stone" and also the commisioned piece "Unfinished Highballs etc." with Odyssey and Swedish Radio Big Band".

@filtecuk good ear

@earospace I have just uploaded a composition of mine which is kind of a tribute to Terje Rypdal. I would be interested to know what you think!

so great i love it

@filtecuk Nicely heard! This little 5-note combination (Morricone, 4-note with Rypdal) is almost identical. However, it is very much used by Terje, i.e. in Innseiling (1980) just before the drums comes in. I think its his most used combination when improvising. (Its also used in "Farewell, 1975).

I love this. But does anyone else hear fragments - and I mean fragments, I am not accusing anyone of plagiarism - of the oboe theme of The Mission by Morricone, especially between 0:20 and 0:45?

lol, 1 clicked dislike accidentally .. poor fellow ..

Just brilliant - so tenderly and full of expresion :0)

@ReturnOfJackDawson I feel the same.
