Digital Booklet
"... Hammer especially plays with astounding fire and grace on this session, some of the finest organ playing he's recorded." - The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide "Four Stars ... this is a session that has grown in stature with familiarity, an altogether tougher and more resilient label debut than anyone remembers." - The Penguin Guide to Jazz "... (on Lungs) Hammer and Abercrombie trade furious runs ... (the album) belongs to Abercrombie and his compositions ... shows how Abercrombie can create a coherent work out of small pieces ... the monumentally atmospheric Timeless shows the way to the Abercrombie to come ... very heady and spacey ... overall, the album is very moving ..." - All About Jazz John Abercrombie's debut as leader has lived up to its title: the album is a collection of Timeless music, a fiery session with Jan Hammer on keyboards and drummer Jack DeJohnette that sounds as fresh on this reissue as when it was first released in 1975. "When Manfred (Eicher) gave me the opportunity to record Timeless, that was my first real break; it helped me find my own way, because I was basically a John McLaughlin rip-off at the time ..." - John Abercrombie

This album is a high-resolution digital transfer of material originating from an analogue recording. It may contain noise, distortion or other artifacts, and may also contain audio which is limited in bandwidth and dynamic range, due to the technology available 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!
