I have no clue what Russ was aiming for when he put this out. A majority of this record is tepid jazz, the track "zippy's night out" gets pretty funky but then goes downhill. Here's a soundclip of one of the spacy electronic tracks on the record - "Gemini 1″

cool cover and I like the spacy electronic thing. Is the tepid jazz at least spacy and electronic as well? Or would it then not be tepid?

Jermey gave me a copy of this and I actually find it to be pretty un-tepid. Definitely all over the place though. Too jazzy to be an avant garde record, and to avant to be jazz. Real decent for 1983 though.

nice piece of FX style analog knob twiddling
