Second ECM LP by this brilliant quintet, recorded in January 1980 in a New York studio. It's not quite as flat-out as the title may infer, but is a very fine example of this band's mature style. The Mingus tribute (written by Bowie) is particularly hot. Personnel: Lester Bowie, Joseph Jarman, Roscoe Mitchell, Malachi Favors Maghostus, Famadou Don Moye Catalogue Number: ECM-1-1167 Grading Notes:
