The Cry!
Exact repro, originally released in 1962, a spiritual jazz masterpiece. "In the early '60s, flutist Prince Lasha's work with alto saxophonist Sonny Simmons was often compared to the trailblazing free jazz that Ornette Coleman was exploring at the time....Free jazz performances like 'Bojangles,' 'A.Y.,' and the rhythmic 'Congo Call' are abstract, cerebral, and left-of-center, but they're still a bit more accessible than Coleman's harmolodic experimentation.
