A really cool record from reedman Robert Rockwell – one that features some great work from keyboardist Bobby Lyle too! Lyle was recording for bigger labels at the time, but his work here on electric piano really adds a lot to the long tracks on the record – a nice mix with the tenor, soprano, and bass clarinet of Rockwell – who also plays some waterphone on the record too! There's a fair bit of added percussion on two tracks, plus guitar on two as well – and the rest of the core group features Willard Peterson on bass and Bill Berg on drums. Titles include "Androids", "Elvin's Waltz", "Todos Nosotros", and "On the Edge". LP, Vinyl record album

A very cool set of tracks from keyboardist Art Resnick – an album that's done in an open-ended spiritual mode, making it sound a lot more like an indie soul jazz session than you might expect! Resnick seems to be playing mostly acoustic and electric piano on the album – save for one track that has him getting nice and moogy – and the rest of the group is a quartet, with some incredible work on soprano, tenor, and flute from the vastly-underrated Robert Rockwell III. Tracks are all originals, with a mix of modes that runs from lyrical to spiritual to slightly funky at times – and titles include "Makin Room (Inner City)", "Full Moon", "S'Cool Fool", and "Jungleopolis".
