It has been some time since I have heard the lp, but I remember being pleasantly surprised. A pretty solid effort.

It is a good addition to any Canterbury

I remember hating it, honestly. But it's been years since I've heard it, so maybe it's not as bad as I think. Actually, I'm sure I have it on vinyl, up in the attic of my parents' house. I'm not about to travel cross-country just to give it another ch

It's not really a NICK MASON album, as was already mentioned it is primarily a CARLA BLEY album that MASON plays drums on. It is alright, and probably better than MASON's only real solo album called "Profiles" that he recorded with RICK FENN of ex-10CC
