Review by Bob Rusch, Cadence
These recordings were previously available as separate volumes and now are packaged together as a double set. These concerts were recorded after Albert Ayler's attempts at more commercial efforts and shortly before the discovery of his death...This was a historically important recording without a doubt, and if not given concentrated attention, very satisfying in many ways.
