Steve Kuhn
**50th Anniversary Edition. 2025 repress.** The album features the group playing Gary McFarland arrangements of Kuhn's compositions, accompanied by a string section on several tracks, with Kuhn delivering stream of consciousness lyrics in an unplanned and largely improvised fashion in the studio.

The 'Steve Kuhn' album i…

Early Works Vol. 2: Music From The Archives
*2025 stock* 2020 was a time of fear as Covid blew through the world, shutting countries down and isolating friends and family alike. In a space of a few short months the world seemed a scarier and smaller place as many experienced isolation and a diffuse uncertainty for the first time.

Or does the listener go to the room in which the songs were recorded? Or maybe the two rooms come together side by side in tandem, in balance, or in parallel, somehow joined? Songs of a person in a city going out of a room, looking. Easily walking down a familiar staircase. Foot leaving the last step before the landing. Standing briefly before the swi…
