Limited Edition 180g Audiophile Vinyl!
Bassist Miroslav Vitous leads an all-star group consisting of Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin, Joe Henderson, Jack DeJohnette, and Joe Chambers.
"With John McLaughlin, Herbie Hancock, Joe Henderson, and Jack DeJohnette, this group rivaled the best fusion bands of the day. It must have been an intimidating challenge for a young Czech bassist to lead such a group on his debut album as a frontman, especially since he composed five of the six tracks. Recorded in late 1969, roughly the same time as the historic "Bitches Brew", and the year before Vitous began a stint with the innovative Weather Report, this was trend-setting fusion. It's produced by Herbie Mann, for whom Vitous played on such albums as "Memphis Underground" and "Stone Flute"." - Mark Allan/AMG
