Deluxe reissue edition. Restoration and digital transfer from original analogue tapes.. The Ethnic Heritage Ensemble was founded in 1973 by percussionist Kahil El'Zabar and had a huge impact on jazz. They have put out several sublime and hotly in demand albums over the years since - the excellent Be Known: Ancient Future Music being one of them - and are rooted in free-jazz improvisations and inspired workouts.

Their second album Impressions came in 1982 and is now remastered and reissued for the first time, much to the delight of collectors. It is a kaleidoscope of sound and unabashed musical vision from this sublime ensemble. As with all their albums, the music they create here defies simple characterisation.
