    This is a superb recording/pressing. Hard to believe it was taken from a live gig in ‘72. On a par with ‘Webster Lewis at Club7’ from the same year. Ginger Baker must have been gobsmacked when he saw Tony Allen playing drums.

          I purchased this album through Amoeba.com for $33. And I was using a gift certificate. I've been a Baker fan from Cream to Air Force to his solo stuff. The drumming on this album melds perfectly with the horn. The recording is near-perfect: a rarity for a live album in my humble opinion. Go get this album as soon as you can!

            Amazing pressing. Probably the best I’ve ever heard for this album. Would recommend picking it up
