I'm ashamed to admit that this is one Elvin Jones record that I haven't heard or checked out yet!
Thanks to Calgary bassist and world traveller Dale James who has been raving about this one to me over the course of the last couple of weeks via texts, e-mails and smoke signals. And now I know why!
That's a KILLER album - to hear Elvin play with synth, and there's one complex almost Mahavishnu-esque coda on one of the pieces (can't remember the name of the track) that Elvin just nails! Some of the best post-Coltrane Elvin on that recording
