side a moving lady what happens
side b all there
visual grade: M-- (beautiful shine) play grade: betw Vg- & Vg++ (plays more then fine for being a private press, some tics here & there and some noise at the beg of both sides, check the long audio clips) labels: clean, deep groove cover: Vg++ silk-screened (really nice)
conservative grading
comments: fierce/creative 4et w/Kris Wanders on alto sax and Louis Moholo on drums rec. in 1971; one of the rarest European free jazz records, PRIVATE press in what seems 250 copies only, hard to find especially in this fine conditions, seldom offered, only four times in the last 5 years (less then once every year) ?!
here's a review i found from All Music Guide:
It's no surprise that most free jazz fans haven't heard Pleasure. The 1970 debut from pianist/clarinetist Kees Hazevoet and his quartet was originally released in the Netherlands as a tiny edition of 250 copies replete with silk-screened covers. It may have been the first offering from Hazevoet under his own name, but by the time of Pleasure's release he was already deeply entrenched in the European free improvisation scene. On Pleasure he's joined by two fellow countrymen: alto saxophonist Kris Wanders and bassist Arjen Gorter, both of whom had been playing with Hazevoet as part of his working group. Joining them here is legendary South African drummer Louis Moholo, best known for his work with fellow South African ex-pat Chris McGregor and the Brotherhood of Breath. The album starts with "Moving Lady," with its humble bass intro soon joined by clarinet and alto for a melancholy melody that is quickly swept away by Moholo's stuttering toms and crashing cymbals. "What Happens" is a more tentative dialog that finds its foundation in Hazevoet's enigmatic piano riffs -- tiny patterns that swirl around the other players before fading away, only to return with heavy chord clusters. It's a brooding style that serves the quartet well, and while there are remarkable solos here, it's the group interaction that makes Pleasure stand out. "All There," the 20-minute album closer, is centered on the spiraling interplay between Hazevoet on piano and Wanders on sax. Toward the end of the piece, Hazevoet switches to clarinet for a frantic mantra that drives Wanders' alto to higher heights before easing the proceedings back to a reverent earthbound finish.~ Wade Kergan, All Music
