An album by guitarist Ralph Towner, released in 1979 on Trio Records' independently planned artist compilation series 'ECM Special', which had been producing ECM Records' Japanese releases since the mid-1970s. The album featured two tracks from 1974's Diary, and each one track from 1975's Match Book with Gary Burton, Egberto Gismonti's 1978 Sol Do Meio Dia (which Towner played on), 1976's Sargasso Sea and Trois/Solos, a 1973 album with Glen Moore. It's a sampler album, but of course the content is top-notch.
