On May 30-31, 1980, Tony Williams went to the Zuckerfabrik recording studio in Stuttgart/Germany, together with Tom Grant (keyboards, synthesizer, he joined this band on the recommendation of Jeff Lorber) and Patrick O'Hearn (bass, synthesizer). In the 1970s and early 1980s, this studio was an illustrious address for audio productions of all kinds. Larry Coryell, Wolfgang Dauner, Stephane Grappeli, Elvin Jones, Martin Kolbe + Ralf Illenberger, Volker Kriegel, Alphonse Mouzon, John Scofield and the United Jazz+Rock Ensemble recorded there, to name just a few.
Tony Williams and Peter Schnyder co-produced the recording. The album was recorded in just two days and mixed right there in the studio.
This timeless album, originally released in an edition of only 500 copies, was hardly promoted at the time and therefore remained unknown. All the better that now for the first time since the release of the original vinyl in 1980, it is finally available on CD, with a significantly improved sound.”
