    Great stuff, B! One of my all-time favourite records! Surman's entry on track 1 is the most blistering opening to a solo I think I can remember! And McL's playing on tracks 1, 4 & 5 is hotter than all the later fusion stuff combined. All five guys sounded like they were in grand form on this day.

    Hello! Unfortunately, I have to agree with Horace ... there is some kind of digital distortion on tracks 2 and 3. Could we trouble you to repost clean files? Not if you have to rip from the vinyl again, of course. I think I probably need to just break down and figure out where I can buy this one. Thanks for the great stuff (I'm an Extrapolation fan, hadn't heard this one.

    There's a clean 320 kbps here (no clicks and a good quality rip). You just need the yandex task bar (which you can disable in firefox after you use it).
