RELEASE DATE

Recorded Live in Italy in October 1985 and mastered directly from the old dusty cassette, here's a previously unheard
Steve Lacy
recording from a rare duo appearance with pianist
Martin Joseph
, a little known yet fascinating British musician who had worked with
Harry Beckett
,
John Surman
,
Ian Carr
, and
Tubby Hayes
, among others, and who later became a regular presence on the Rome mid '70s creative Jazz scene. This recording presents an opportunity to listen to the soprano sax giant in a repertoire not frequently found on his other duo recordings with pianists. The set list includes some of Lacy's finest compositions like "Prospectus," "Flakes," and "Coastline," plus
Thelonious Monk
's classic "Bemsha Swing," a tribute to Monk's visionary mastery where Joseph's contrapuntal response to Lacy's angular lines leads the music towards a multidimensional space, a quality to be found throughout the whole album. This is a wonderful discovery, and a significant addition to Lacy's discography and legacy. Contains printed inner sleeve with archival photos and extensive liner notes by two Italian soprano saxophone specialists
Roberto Ottaviano
and
Eugenio Colombo
, and pianist Martin Joseph himself.
