The record

Braith doubles on alto and soprano, but the C-melody saxophone credit is the one that stops you. He stacked the date with rhythm -- Popito Allende on congas, plus Chico Torres, Fred Briggs and Gilbert Braithwaite on percussion -- and two guitars in Eddie Diehl and Jay Carter, with Jane Getz at the piano. Braith wrote the notes himself, dated April 1967. Prestige, seven tracks.
