DESCRIPTION:
"Hot Ass" is a fulminant trio performance bringing all together for an outstanding explosion of musical interaction: the wisdom and strength of an all-time hero as Peter Brötzmann in dance with the art of velocity and extremly young fighting of Oliver Schwerdt (formerly known as Elan Pauer) and Christian Lillinger. Get that kick to the ultimate jazz ecstasy! "Beauty Legs" is called the recording of the first duo performance of the marvelous double bass players both called John, Edwards here, Eckhardt there.

Peter Brötzmann hat sich im Umfeld seines 70. Geburtstages, namentlich auf Seite 147 des seine "Gespräche" mit Christoph J. Bauer dokumentierenden Bandes, die Bemerkung zuschreiben lassen, derzufolge die „Sexualität“ als „Urantriebskraft“ für den Musiker gelten mag. Eine diesbezüglichen Spuren nachforschende Studie würde bei immerhin 8 (!) Alben in Bezug auf deren Betitelung oder deren ,Cover‘-Gestaltung fündig werden: nach "Nipples" (1969), "Balls" (1970), "Woodcuts" (2008), "Snakelust" (2011), "Long Story Short" (2011), "Mollie’s In The Mood" (2012), "I Am Here Where Are You" (2013), zuletzt bei "Sex Tape" (2016). "Hot Ass" (2019) formuliert sich so als Anspielung des kundigen Musikhistorikers auf die fünfzigjährige Geschichte einer bestimmten Nomenklatur.
Dass Oliver Schwerdt, vormals Elan Pauer, seine klassischen Hardcore-Freejazz-Quintette mit basslosen Aufwärmrunden beginnt, ist spätestens seit der jenem 2013 mit Ernst-Ludwig Petrowsky entfachten "Tumult!" vorgelagerten Mini-CD mit dem Titel "Short Night" bekannt. Nachdem EUPHORIUM Records die allererste Begegnung von Peter Brötzmann und Christian Lillinger, realisiert am 7. Oktober 2017 im legendären Leipziger Club NATO, "Biturbo!" getauft hat, und bei dem neben Lillinger Schwerdt selbst dem alten Kapitän sein hyperschallschnelles Ruder heranträgt, erscheint nun auch der Nachfolge der damaligen Quintett-Aufnahme ("Karacho!") mit einem Trio-Nachfolger. "Hot Ass/Beauty Legs" präsentiert mit "Beauty Legs" zudem die beiden Bassisten, die sich mit den basslosen Drei hernach zum Quintett vereinen werden, im Zweiklang ihrer tieftönenden Holzboote. Die Auffächerung der kompletten Geschichte einer der energetischsten Abenteuer überhaupt..
