Organic atmospherics from Chari Chari – work done in a style that seems to make it rise from the earth of its own accord!

Sublime modern jazz from Teddy – right up there with the best mid 50s work of other groundbreakers like Charles Mingus or George Russell, to whom Charles acknowledges more than a bit of inspiration! (Jazz) CD
