This album was recorded in Paris on August 18, 1969 by Clifford Thornton (cornet and conga drums) with the help of Grachan Moncur III (trombone), Archie Shepp (soprano saxophone), Arthur Jones (alto saxophone), Dave Burrell (piano), Sunny Murray (drums), Beb Guerin (bass), Earl Freeman (bass) and Claude Delcloo (drums). "Clifford Thornton was a player and a composer whose obscurity was offset by the high esteem in which he was held by his fellow musicians. Like Shepp, Thornton was actively involved in advancing the ideology of the black nationalist movement. And all of his recordings are intense and important about those matters that were close to his heart - liberation, communication and unity". (Thurston Moore and Byron Coley).
