The record
Cut for a Quebecois film soundtrack and shelved for decades, this session finds the quartet revisiting older material like 'Naima' with looser, more searching phrasing. A quiet footnote between 'Crescent' and 'A Love Supreme,' unearthed long after the fact.

Pressings
Every copy on file here is 2019, so there is no early-pressing hunt to be had. The standard Impulse! issue is 7762651 in mono, carrying an RVG stamp, with a white-label variant of the same number also listed. The alternative is the numbered blue transparent club edition, B0030157-01. Pick on packaging rather than lineage -- we hold no earlier pressing for this title.
