Masqualero is one of Norway's most internationally known bands. When established in 1983, the group called itself Arild Andersen / Jon Christensen Quintet, but almost immediately changed its name to Masqualero, named after Wayne Shorter's famous tune. The Odin recording is their first album, and since they have recorded three albums for ECM. This record contains previously unissued tracks from the 1983 studio recording, as well as from the 1985 ECM session. Odin NJ4008
