Recorded live at Radio Studio Zurich on February 19, 1968, Bird Food predates Santana - previously considered the trio's debut album - by nearly seven months, making it the earliest known document of this historic formation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tape lay dormant in Pierre Favre's personal archive until he and trombonist-producer Samuel Blaser uncovered it while sorting through old recordings. A discovery that rewrites the timeline of the trio and captures, in vivid immediacy, the birth of a musical language. The programme of four tracks features Ornette Coleman's composition 'Bird Food', and three by the trio's pianist Irene Schweizer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePierre Favre: drums\u003cbr\u003eIrene Schweizer: piano\u003cbr\u003eJiri Mraz: bass\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecorded: Radio Studio Zurich, February 19, 1968\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: Bird Food \/ Sounds II \/ Hinten \/ The Attack\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BLASER MUSIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47016962556060,"sku":"SONGS004CD","price":14.88,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/1_9f40db31-5852-4e44-856b-a980aa918deb.webp?v=1780514373","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/pierre-favre-trio-bird-food-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
