This double album famously features one disc of live recordings from their 1972 tour and one disc of studio material. The live portion captures the band's pivot into more formal jazz-rock territories following the departure of Robert Wyatt, highlighting Karl Jenkins' intricate compositional style and the ensemble's virtuosic command of odd-meter rhythmic cycles.
