Personnel: Prince Lasha (flute, clarinet, alto clarinet, alto saxophone); Sonny Simmons (English horn, alto saxophone); Bobby Hutcherson (vibraphone); Charles Moffett (drums). Audio Remixer: Phil DeLancie. Liner Note Author: Nat Hentoff. Recording information: Contemporary Record's Studios, Los Angeles, CA (09/28/1967/09/29/1967). Photographer: Ed Michel. Unknown Contributor Roles: Bobby Hutcherson; Buster Williams; Charles Moffett. The second of two collaborations by Prince Lasha (on flute, alto, and alto clarinet) and Sonny Simmons (alto and English horn), this set has been reissued on CD. Vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, bassist Buster Williams, and drummer Charles Moffett offer stimulating support and close interplay with the two lead voices, who contributed all five selections. The music is influenced by (but not too derivative of) Ornette Coleman's free jazz style, and the improvisations are pretty advanced and sometimes quite emotional. Lasha and Simmons made for a potent team, making one wish that they would have a reunion someday. An underrated classic of its kind. ~ Scott Yanow
