大変貴重な未発表プライベート・マテリアル集！！1970年、Derek Bailey、Evan Parkerと共に世界をリードしたフリーインプロヴィゼーション・レーベル"Incus"を設立。まさに百戦錬磨といった凄まじい経歴を持つ英国のフリー・ジャズ・ドラマーTony Oxley。本作は本人の個人的なコレクションより厳選されたという、前衛色バリバリの1974​から2016年までの5つの録音を纏めた初出作。Barry Guy 、Dave Holdsworth、Howard Riley、Paul Rutherford、Larry Stabbins、Phil Wachsmann、Hugh Metcalfeらと行なったクインテット編成の記録が主となっており、ガキゴキの鉱物的音響やリングモジュレーターを多用したカオスなエレクトロアコースティックまで多彩な形態が聴けます。

Available for the first time on CD, this is another collection of essential pieces from one of the originators and masters of this style.

These recordings were selected from the personal collection of Tony Oxley and were mastered for this release with superb sound by Karsten Lehl under Tony’s supervision. Some of the pieces were edited into their final composed form many years after the original recording was made.

Performed by a who’s who of European improvised music, this new release is an essential addition to Tony’s recorded legacy.
