Originally released in 1969, now for the first time on vinyl."First I would like to thank you for buying my newest album. As you can see and hear this album marks for me a different approach to my music. It represents my meeting with free jazz. Free jazz for me does not mean complete anarchy or disorganised sound. In my vocabulary disorganised sound still means noise. And don’t forget that the definition of music is organised sound. Therefore in this album you will hear me playing rhythmically instead of soloing on chord changes. About the musicians playing with me: Isla Eckinger is really a fantastic bass man with “great big ears”, meaning the ability to hear and respond to everything that happens in the music. Quoting Charles Mingus, “a cat that can hear like that could hear around corners”. Clarence Becton, our man on drums really knows how to take care of business. Just listen at the ever swinging feeling he gives me on all the moving type tunes. It was really a pleasure making this album and hoping that you receive as much pleasure as we did."
