Roswell Rudd is a live album by the trombonist Roswell Rudd, the first recording under his name. It was recorded in November 1965 in Hilversum, Netherlands, and was released by America Records in 1971. On the album, Rudd is joined by saxophonist John Tchicai, bassist Finn Von Eyben, and drummer Louis Moholo.[1]
In the fall of 1965, Tchicai lined up dates for the New York Art Quartet, a group that he co-led with Rudd, in Copenhagen, Gothenburg (Sweden), Hilversum (Holland), and Amsterdam (where they opened for Ornette Coleman's group), with Von Eyben and Moholo substituting for band members Reggie Workman and Milford Graves, who were unable to make the trip.[2] The NYAQ album Old Stuff, featuring these four players, was recorded in Copenhagen in October,[3] while the album Roswell Rudd was recorded for a radio broadcast while the group was in Hilversum in November.[4] (The date listed on the album jacket, February 1965, is incorrect.[4]) The French label America Records released the album in 1971 without Rudd's consent.[5]
