Gatefold. Made in the EU. ℗ 2017 Danish Broadcasting Corporation, under exclusive license to impulse! © 2017 impulse! Recorded live at the Danish Radio Concert Hall, Copenhagen, 2010. Charlie Watts meets the Danish Radio Big Band was instigated in 2009 by English trumpeter Gerard Presencer, who is also a member of the band. The Band had four days of rehearsals and then had a performance at the then newly opened Danish Radio Concert Hall in Copenhagen. All but two of the pieces here are rewrites of earlier, previously recorded selections either with the Rolling Stones or a selection of suits from his duet record with another drumming legend Jim Keltner. This record doesn't break any new ground. The emphasis is more on moods, harmonies and at moments the arrangements do nod at Gil Evans' or Mingus' styled approaches. All runouts are stamped.
