Hard to find lp with jazz-influenced, improvisation-based early electronic avant-pop-funk led by Paul Bley on ARP Synthesizer and RMI electric piano and composed by Annette Peacock. Contributing musicians include Dick Youngstein, bass, Steve Haas, drums, Glen Moore, bass, Frank Tusa, bass, and Bobby Moses, drums. This is one of the earliest ARP lps, and documents Bley's period of performing on the primitive synthesizer with his jazz band, when they toured as "The Paul Bley Synthesizer Show" introducing the ARP to worldwide audiences.
