- Michael Villmow's Köln Big Band featuring Bendik & Chad Wackerman: -N-
(1991, cd, Germany, lipstick records)
With a band name like Michael Villmow's Köln Big Band featuring Bendik & Chad Wackerman, it seems obvious that you only have little space left for the actual title of the album.
Maybe that was the reason to call this album "-N-".

Anyway, this one goes way back to 1991 and I'm a bit puzzled that I had never heard of it.
Excellent Big Band jazz from Cologne.
All original compositions.
Featuring former Zappa-drummer Chad Wackerman (next to tenor saxophonist Bendik).
And it's not that there were no Zappa freaks living in Cologne at that time.

An excellent find. Even if I say so myself.
Here's a nice video about the KBB and their two albums:
