As mentioned below this album is a masterpiece. It’s a great sounding copy as well. Average thickness on vinyl, good soundstage, low noise, some smudging of original print on label on the version I have (scratched out matrix) where the Atlantic colour bands cross.
-
The labels are printed on the wrong sides of the record on my copy, sounds great though so no complaints -
This was a flea market find, didn't expect too much. Wow there parts of this album that are up there with the best. Deft complex funky rhythms, astonishing sax and top notch production had me zoned!
If you are into your fusion this has to be an essential album to own. 10 out of 10 Mr Cobham.
