Invitation to Openness

by Les McCann

Invitation to Openness cover art

A radical departure for the soul-jazz pianist, 'Invitation to Openness' is a deep, meditative, and largely improvised exploration of texture and mood. The album is dominated by the 26-minute title track, a slow-burning, atmospheric piece that is a cornerstone of spiritual and ambient jazz. It's a key document of the era's spiritual questing, a powerful and unique statement in McCann's discography.
