"Roscoe Mitchell heads his Sound Ensemble, and this 1981 session presents them doing two extensive numbers and two shorter pieces. The longer works have fiery solos and intricate unison sections, while "JoJar" features Mitchell's group in a looser, more relaxed posture, and "Variations On A Folk Song" alternates between jagged, flamboyant solos and simple statements." The group also comprises Hugh Ragin, Jaribu Shahid, A. Spencer Barefield & Tani Tabbal.

Vinyl has a few light marks but plays VG/NM.
