Pendulum (Dave Liebman album)

Pendulum is a live album by saxophonist David Liebman which was recorded at the Village Vanguard in early 1978 and originally released on the Artists House label. In 2008 the album was rereleased by Mosaic Records as part of a 3 CD box set with eight additional unreleased recordings from the same performances.

Reception

The AllMusic review by David R. Adler stated, " this album is an obscure classic of hard-hitting, post-bop New York jazz ... A collector's item, and a terrific listen as well." John Kelman's review of the rereleased box set on All About Jazz noted "Mosaic Select 32: Pendulum Live at the Village Vanguard may be thirty years old, but it remains one of the most exciting releases of 2008".
