This studio date must be one of Mark Dresser's earliest recordings. It also is the first officially issued encounter between Newton and koto player Allan Iwohara who also figures on Newton's fine "Water Mystery" from 1985. A later (?) video of James Newton performing with Allan Iwohara ist at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjVgwOpXxgg.
Again, the LP transfer was de-rumbled and de-clicked but otherwise left unchanged.
