Terje Rypdal - Waves

Mastered from the original analog tapes

Album download included, offer subject to expiration

Terje Rypdal's Waves (recorded 1977) announced the beginning of the Norwegian guitarist's association with Danish trumpeter Palle Mikkelborg, which continues to this day. The album also introduced one of Terje's most enduringly popular pieces, "Per Ulv." "Rypdal's album is a series of sonic excursions ranging from the expressionist to the impressionist..." wrote Record World. "Rypdal's guitar and Mikkelborg's trumpet are well-matched, with Manfred Eicher's typically superb production putting it all in focus."

Initially published in January 1978, this October 2016 reissue is as audiophile as it gets, lacquers cut from the original analog tapes.
