This is a leader album released in 1977 by Miroslav Vitous, a great jazz bassist from Czech Republic who later joined Weather Report. The album features two percussionists, Don Alias and Armen Halburian, but Vitous himself plays allmost instruments on the album. In addition to acoustic and electric bass, Vitus also plays piano, electric piano, and synthesizers likes mini-moog, ARP string ensemble. The whole album is a masterpiece of cosmic jazz, including A1, which flies aggressively, A2, with its Afro-Brazilian rhythm, and A3, which grooves trippily with only percussion and synths.
