Summary:
"This 1972 concert, with the excellent support of Ron Buron, Henry Pearson, Richie Goldberg and Joe Texidor, is a perfect example Rahsaan Roland Kirk's unique genius ... featuring classics from Coltrane to Ellington.... Often playing two and three reed instruments simultaneously with amazing skill, he was a living encyclopedia of jazz and an ever-thinking force of energy who swept the audience up into his orbit."--Container.
