Thanks! Been meaning to check this out for a while. Not just a great lineup, but Thurston likes it! Hey!
Just a note: the "Ali" shown on the front cover is, I believe, percussionist Ali K. Abuyi, who played with a lot a notables of the time and was a regular member with Juma Sultan of the Aboriginal Music Society, with which many, many great players played, like William Parker, James Blood Ulmer, Sonny Simmons, Dewey Redman and others. And the cover photo may have been taken at Studio We, one of the principle NYC lofts of the era.
Thank you for the identification.
The lp was recorded at Studio WE.
Check out the fantastic Jemeel Moondoc Box from No Business Records.

Many thanks for this rare gem. Title is "SEIKATSU KOJYO IINKAI", not "JINKAI", means "Life improvement committee" in English. Regards from Japan,
Thanks for the information.
Belated, but nevertheless sincere thanks from me (grabbing for the 2nd time - link still up 15 months after orig post)
Why didn't I say thanks the 1st time round? Perhaps it was excitement...
