Album Notes & Community Reviews
Saxophonist Charles Tyler's second outing for the ESP-Disk label presented a fierce, unconventional approach to free jazz. Accompanied by cello and bass, the drumless trio navigated intense, abrasive improvisations that showcased Tyler's powerful tone and highly unorthodox melodic concepts. The album further cemented his reputation as a formidable voice in the avant-garde underground.
