Roland Kirk - Left & Right
Here's some great orchestral and small-group jazz by a great player, Roland Kirk (now known as Rashaan Roland Kirk). Released in 1969, Left & Right shows just how brilliantly this man composed as well as played. I should say plays, as he is still, to my knowledge, with us.
Brilliant reed work, and his cutting humour shows from the very first track!
If you want fullsize scans of the jacket, here's the front, and here's the back.
And so, without further ado, enjoy Left & Right!

This is a fantastic recording audio-wise.
As for the music, I'll get used to it - it's like breaking in a new pair of shoes.
1977 was not a good year - in which we lost Bing, Elvis and Roland Kirk.
Thanks and regards - Mel.
