Also put out in Europe by the BYG and Actuel labels, this British LP is fairly adventurous, featuring the originals and trombone of
Grachan Moncur III. He matches ideas with altoist
Roscoe Mitchell, pianist
Dave Burrell, bassist
Alan Silva, drummer
Andrew Cyrille and (on one of the four pieces) his former boss, tenor saxophonist
Archie Shepp. Three of the selections are a bit reminiscent of
the John Coltrane Quartet in their modality, but it is during the four movements of the continuous "New Africa" that
Moncur can be heard at his dynamic best.
