Burnin Red Ivanhoe

Among the most original and innovative formations of European progressive (and also one of the most underrated). Jazz-prog in a vague Colosseum style mixed with a taste for exoticism and a calibrated and measured approach to improvisation. The distinctive features of this little-known Danish band are the sax-flute overlaps and the extreme clarity of the rhythm section. The self-titled album from 1970 and W.W.W. from 1971 are small gems of a sound recognizable at first listen.
