    Nat Birchall's second album from 2010 on Matthew Halsall's Godwana Records.

    The music here is firmly rooted in the modal jazz world of Pharoah Sanders, Alice Coltrane and others who sought to expand upon the avenues of expression originally forged by John Coltrane in the heady days of the early 1960s. As has often been pointed out by commentators however, this is no pastiche or "re-make". This is the real thing, played absolutely in the now, but played from and in the spirit of then.

    Originally released only in CD format, Jazzman Records are proud to make this music available on vinyl for the first time!
