Tom Prehn Quartet

Tom Prehn Quartet was a Danish free jazz group led by the pianist Tom Prehn, with Frits Krogh on tenor saxophone, Poul Ehlers on bass and Finn Slumstrup on drums. In October 1963 the quartet recorded Axiom in Copenhagen for the Swedish label Sonet, which did not release it. Two copies of the test pressing survived, and Corbett vs. Dempsey issued the album on CD in 2015; Rune Grammofon later put it out on vinyl. Prehn plays dense chords and clusters over a rhythm section that often drops a steady meter.
