Opening with Abbey Lincoln's definitive rendition of unreleased Billie Holiday song, Left Alone (natch), you have to admire the confidence of any musician to riff over what was originally a Max Roach / Art Davis rhythm section and iconic Coleman Hawkins sax solo – let alone in infamously fudging-the-details DSBM. But such is the ambition (or youthful naïveté) on this masterwork of slow burning late nite metal. Grand, solemn, and astounding throughout. Not to be missed by early Sadness fans. Luke
This album is just incredible, majestical. Is that even a word? A true masterpiece, and one that I dont play that often so that it doesn't get overplayed and soften the blow you get each time fromthis heavy slab. halfmartian
