I've been waiting years for this repress. Such an underrated album and one of my favorite spiritual jazz records – just perfect in every way. This pressing does not disappoint. Pick it up if you can.
Hailed by Gilles Peterson as “one of the best musicians in the UK”, Nat Birchall has quietly garnered a reputation as one of the country’s foremost creatives in the jazz medium, releasing inspirational music that operates in similar regions to the spiritual works of luminaries such as John Coltrane and Pharoah Sanders.
