A cheap package, but some rare live work by the Clarke Boland group – with Sahib Shihab on flute and baritone, Fats Sadi on vibes and vocals, Joe Harris on percussion, Francy Boland on piano, and Kenny Clarke on drums! Titles include "Night Lady", "Ya Ya Blues", "Jay Jay", and "The Top".

Sweet spiritual soul jazz from Lamont Johnson – played by a sextet that includes some great work on tenor, soprano sax, and flute – really pushing the session with a searching, soulful quality! The tracks are all originals, and the best numbers have sort of a Jazz Bizniz sort of feel – fiercely proud and rhythmic, with some great modal jazz undercurrents. Titles include "Aces", "Virunga Dancesong", "Nina", "Europa", "Second Hand Child", and "Life Is A Sweet Thing".
