Record Store Day 2019. Double LP Clear Vinyl. Contains 2 bonus tracks. Drummer, composer and poet William Hooker has been a tireless force in free improvised music for over 40 year s. He emerged from New York’s loft jazz scene in the mid-’70s, part of a generation of artists fueled by the social, political and cultural frustrations of their era. This second wave of American free jazz would push relentlessly into new territories—collaborating in a variety of non-traditional settings, establishing their own labels, venues, etc.—all in an effort at creative self-determination.
