An album released in 1985 featuring a quartet led by pianist Don Pullen, with George Adams, known for his bluesy masterpieces, and Milford Graves among other collaborations, along with frequent sessions with Albert Ayler, Charles Mingus, and others. The quartet also includes Cameron Brown (b) and Dannie Richmond (ds). The album captures live recordings from a performance at the prestigious New York club Village Vanguard in 1983. The uplifting original tracks by Adams and Pullen on A1/B1, a soulful rendition of a Duke Ellington classic exceeding 15 minutes on A2, and a gentle arrangement of Charles Mingus's score on B2 make for a splendid performance that invites listeners to immerse themselves in the music without any preconceptions.
