Description
With “daring and visionary spirit”, to quote a Downbeat review from the year of
this album’s release, master improvisers John Abercrombie, Dave Holland and
Jack DeJohnette forged a unique vision of trio interplay on their frst joint effort
under the Gateway moniker. The trio tackles Dave Holland and Jack DeJohnette
originals with a visionary idea of what three- way conversations in jazz could
sound like. As The Observer remarked in an article of the time, “the telepathic
ensemble playing and perfect execution make it difcult to believe that this music
is almost completely improvised”. The players’ respectively unique instrumental
signatures had already fully crystallised here, hinting at the music to come.
The Luminessence edition of the album arrives in a Tip- on gatefold, complete
with previously unseen archival photos and new liner notes by Wilco’s Nels Cline
