The Story

This audiophile reissue restores the album's full tonal richness, capturing Shaw's soaring trumpet lines and the ensemble's dynamic interplay with unprecedented clarity. Shaw leads a powerhouse lineup - including Billy Harper, Steve Turre, René McLean, Cecil McBee and Joe Bonner - through five expansive tracks blending modal jazz, spiritual themes, and post-bop intensity.
