PAP-25510 (LP) Promotional copy. White label. w/insert.
sleeve : VG+(TEOC, light wear on edge and corner, light dirts.)
media : EX/EX(some slightly noise.)
One of the most prolific artists in the ECM catalog, the prestigious German independent jazz label founded by Manfred Eicher, New York-born guitarist John Abercrombie released this landmark album in 1981. His second album under the quartet format features Richard Beirach (piano), George Mraz (bass), and Peter Donald (drums). From the ambient-jazz opening A1, where Abercrombie’s lush, wet-toned electric guitar weaves lyrical melodies over a deeply immersive soundscape, to the rest of the album, the ensemble delivers intensely focused, spiritually rich performances that push contemporary jazz to its limits. A true masterwork in deep, emotive, and sophisticated jazz expression.
