The record
No bassist, no drummer -- just Pass alone with standards, harmony and melody sorted out simultaneously across six strings. Pablo's 1973 session became the reference point for what one guitarist could accomplish without a band.

Pressings
Pablo put this out across 1974 in near-identical form. The earliest on file is a UK 2310 708, but US, French and Italian copies carry the same year and number, and nothing here settles which came first. The US 2310 708, listed as an Indianapolis pressing, is what most buyers mean. A 1977 Japanese MTF 1013 is the notable import, and the current option is a 2025 Pablo 180 gram, CR00849.
Showing the first pressing, audiophile reissues and copies carrying a collector marker, out of 76 pressings on file.
