    This record is a personal favorite of mine, as it was what inspired me to pursue jazz guitar. I've been hunting for a clean vinyl print for a while and was prepared to pay any price for a good one. Amazingly, this ultra-clean copy showed up at Amoeba and I snagged it without hesitation.
    I won't speak much about the performance. If you found your way here, you already know this is a seminal release from now master PM. Also, Jaco gets to stretch here which is a real treat.
