Percussion legend Andrew Cyrille recorded this album in Paris on August 11, 1969. A wonderful and preeminent figure in free jazz Cyrille worked with Cecil Taylor, Roland Kirk, Coleman Hawkins, Marion Brown and David S.Ware among the others. “Subsequent to Milford Graves’ solo work on the ESP-Disk label, Mr. Cyrille again proved the solo drum lp to be a valid (if rare) entity in the world of recorded jazz. Whistles, gongs, shouts, et al. are played ferociously here by one of the planet’s most formidable improvisors…” (Thurston Moore and Byron Coley - from the JazzActuel boxset’s liner notes).
