Extended Play: Live at Birdland is a live double-album by the Dave Holland Quintet recorded at the Birdland jazz club over four days in November 2001 and released by ECM in 2003.
Reception
Thom Jurek of AllMusic states
"Shockingly, Extended Play is Dave Holland's first live album for ECM, a label he has been associated with for 30 years! Holland's standing quintet—featuring trombonist Robin Eubanks, saxophonist Chris Potter, drummer Billy Kilson, and vibes and marimba virtuoso Steve Nelson—are, according to today's jazz standards, a veteran ensemble. On this Birdland date from 2001, they offer ample evidence as to why they are one of the most highly regarded ensembles in the music today. The material on this double-disc collection is, predictably enough, mostly taken from the band's studio releases. But that's where predictability ends. Virtually everything here is in wonderfully extended form, with only one tune clocking in under ten minutes... If ever there were a contender for jazz record of the year, for 2003, Extended Play is it."
