This was one of my first jazz albums. It still looks very current and timeless. I listen to it more and more often than some later funk-oriented and listener-warmer albums of the band. Perhaps the inclusion of a live part of the group's work adds immediacy and energy. I like soundscapes that are on the border of distortion but in my press absolutely clear and controlled. I don't know if GZ could do it nowadays...? Sometimes I find myself listening to what I imagine is the ticking of a clock or a heart. The atmosphere of the first side corresponds very well with the second side of the record, which is live. At the same time, you can hear and feel the evolution of musicians towards jazz roots. Even some parts of the album were recorded as an improvisation for the first cut. A true beauty that will appeal to enthusiasts. In addition, with perfect sound.
