This record encompasses a wealth of musical styles and genres. Rooted in psych-jazz, progressive rock, post rock and free jazz, it also features elements of straight ahead jazz, contemporary classical, electric blues and pop. A century of influences, synthesized in a new long-form composition by Jeff Cedrone and Bob Gorry showcasing tight riffs, open improvs, harmolodic interplay, lovely melodies, and high intensity collective improvisation.

It is a single work that is meant to be listened as one, but is broken into sections for convenience. Track 6 contains the complete work with no track markings. Bandcamp streaming always adds gaps between tracks.
