Digital Booklet
"... only gets more impressive as time passes." - The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide "This is what I believed Ornette Coleman meant by free jazz ... free as loose, loose as pliant and relaxed rather than sloppy and untethered ... the title cut is so exquisite it makes my diaphragm tingle. A." - Robert Christgau Bassist Dave Holland leads his quartet on this 1973 release which earned four stars from The Penguin Guide to Jazz and is now considered an essential album in any jazz collection.
192 kHz / 24-bit PCM – ECM Records Studio Masters

This album is a high-resolution digital transfer of material originating from an analogue master source. It may contain noise, distortion or other artifacts, and may also contain audio which is limited in bandwidth or dynamic range, due to the technology used at the time of its original creation. As such, it is offered as a high-resolution documentation of a historical release.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
