The album features live recordings from a 1982 performance at Inroads in New York with a quartet consisting of Ed Jackson (as), Ed Schuller (b), and Billy Hart (ds). A1, with Schuller's excellent bass playing a solo while scatting in unison, and A2, which sprints at a speedy pace with layers of minimalist phrasing, are highlights. The performances are superb, maintaining a consistent groove while exploring free-form action reminiscent of Ornette Coleman and Don Cherry. Highly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260331\/OMH26010300_a1.mp3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eSubway Awakening\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA2: \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/xsvxdiscott.xsrv.jp\/organicmusic\/samplemp3\/mp3\/20260331\/OMH26010300_a2.mp3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eStudy No. 1\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"organic music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284087701728,"sku":"OMH26010300","price":2530.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0511\/8073\/2616\/files\/IMG_9905.jpg?v=1774940201","url":"https:\/\/organicmusic.jp\/en\/products\/tom-varner-quartet-motion-stillness","provider":"PHYSICAL STORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
