Chicago saxophone legend Von Freeman took his working band to Europe for a triumphant appearance at Jazzfest Berlin, Halloween night, 2002. This recording contains the complete performance of his New Apartment Lounge Quartet from that evening. Festival artistic director John Corbett described the performance as "a stunning toboggan ride of a concert, bringing some of the funky intimacy of the Chicago club to the German city". He added "Over the course of four long pieces, Freeman established his authority without question". The four extended performances here reveal the mature Freeman at his best.
