A record as unique as its title – a set led by saxophonist Devin Brahja Waldman, but done with a soaring ensemble spirit that takes us back to 70s material by Eddie Gale or The Descendants Of Mike & Phoebe! Part of the record's charm is the presence of vocals from Janice Lowe – a singer who rises and falls with the pulsating rhythms of the record, which get a lot of inspiration from the basswork of Luke Stewart, who's got a very spiritual vibe here. The lineup also includes tenor from James Brandon Lewis, who's as powerful here as on any of his dates as a leader – and additional elements include flute, bass clarinet, piano, trumpet, and drums – working in well-crafted arrangements by Brahja, filled with spirit and soul. Titles include "Accessibility Of Soul", "Sorcery Of Terminology", "Querencia", and "Watermelancholia". LP, Vinyl record album

Really tremendous work from Patty Waters – a singer who's best known for her avant jazz explorations on ESP Records, but who steps out here in a distinctly different mode on an unissued session from the start of the 70s! Patty's alone here – just playing piano alongside her vocals – in a style that maybe links her a bit more strongly to a vocal jazz tradition, but still in a mode that's very distinct – as both the songs and their structure are completely unique! There's a more sensitive style here – Waters being really open with her feelings and ideas, and hiding a bit less behind some of the more ferocious styles that she's known for – on tunes that almost have the fragile intimacy of work by a singer like Shirley Horn around the same time. Titles include "Touched By Rodin In A Paris Museum", "At Last I Know", "Please Make Love To Me", "At Last I Found You", "I Love You Honey", and "Love Is The Warmth Of Togetherness". Also features two bonus live tracks from a 1974 performance at Mountain College. LP, Vinyl record album
