With more than 130 minutes of extraordinary ground-breaking music, this live recording of electric bass genius Jaco Pastorius and the Word of Mouth Big Band, featuring harmonica virtuoso Toots Thielemans as special guest, was recorded in analog 24 tracks by the Record Plant mobile truck at the Avery Fisher Hall in NYC on June 27, 1982 as part of George Wein's Kool Jazz Festival. An extraordinary recording of an extraordinary performance.
This Deluxe 45rpm 200g edition is the first one to be mastered from the original 2 track master tapes that were found some 30 years later (the previous digital download versions were released from a digital remix of the 24 tracks). What we have here is the direct copy of the original pure analog 2 track.
