This exceptional 1977 studio collaboration brings together three distinct generations of master improvisers for an intimate exercise in spontaneous chamber jazz. Released on pianist Paul Bley's avant-garde imprint, Improvising Artists Inc., the session captures veteran cool jazz saxophonist Lee Konitz interacting fluidly with Bley's abstract harmonic concepts and the versatile guitar work of Return to Forever alumnus Bill Connors. Alternating between acoustic and electric variants of their instruments, the trio constructs fragile, sparse soundscapes that challenge the traditional boundaries of free improvisation. Rather than relying on aggressive sonic bursts, the performances are defined by patient listening, lyrical dialogue, and understated geometric beauty. From spacious abstract blues explorations to tightly knit acoustic conversations, this historical date stands as a monument of cerebral and deeply cohesive contemporary avant-jazz integration.
