Henry Threadgill's Society Situation Dance Band

Henry Threadgill's Society Situation Dance Band never recorded commercially, it was a band made for the purpose of live performance, but short clips from a TV recording of a performance in Hamburg, Germany, in 1988 have been available on YouTube for some time. Recently, though, a user called redobstacle has uploaded the full recording in three parts. This is a treasure, not only because it seems to be the only way to hear (and see) what the Society Sitation Dance Band was about, but also because it's truly great music.
