At last, a re-issue of this fantastic album. Nat Birchall is in top form. While his Jazz studio albums are more on the spiritual mellow side (amazing in their own right), this record is a showcase for his more energetic / out there live playing. An absolute must for any fan of Coltrane (John and Alice) or Pharoah Sanders. Torsten
Dave Stapelton, founder of Edition Records, has built quite the label with an incredible roster of talent. He is also an accomplished composer and pianist at the highest level! The songs here are full of life and a joy to listen to. Rob O.
Had everyone had warning of what to expect? "Opener" set the scene for those unsure newcomers. "Long Way Home" - an apt title: what a break. Idris wanders off leaving Leon, Emre and Satin to find the way... with a joyful reunion at the end.
The journeys continue through the rest of the show - Leon constantly providing that anchor around which the wonder this world - and, of course, Other Worlds - fly at their own pace.
You may know of Janek Gwizdala - if not Hidden Treasures gives hints. Peter Jones
