Album Notes & Community Reviews
Originally issued in a microscopic private press run, this subterranean Philadelphia performance is a singular artifact blending free jazz vibraphone with proto-dub effects. Driven by heavy tape delay and echo, Jamal creates a wildly psychedelic, deeply spiritual meditation that accidentally predicted decades of experimental ambient music.
