Freedom/ORG, 1970. New Copy (reissue)... $27.99
Stunning duets from these key improvisers – a set recorded in Paris, and done with a stripped-down and freely playful vibe that's very much like some of the best AACM material of the time!

Mel Brown's fifth album – as we'd assume by the title – and a pretty darn tasty batch of funky numbers!
