Released in 1981, this album contains recordings of Masahiko Togashi, Hozan Yamamoto and Masahiko Satoh, who performed together on 1980's 'Eternal Echoes', at the Donaueschingen Festival in Germany that same year. The album opens with 'Distant Sound' from the same album, followed by a free improvisation dialogue that spins out a unique sound world and develops into a superb piece of avant-ethnic jazz throughout the album. An absolutely wonderful performance, highly recommended.
