Terje Rypdal's first, maybe the only record where he sings himself? It's a mixture of different genres, some rock, some big band, some jazz, it's not bad at all, and if you know your Rypdal you can recognize things that he would explore later on.

Early Terje has already some elements in his playing that we would later hear in full bloom.
