2LP - Limited edition 180g Black Vinyl housed in a double gatefold tip-on foil-stamped and numbered jacket. Mastered for vinyl by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound. Pressed at Furnace Record Pressing. Only 1,000 copies in this edition. 

Shabaka says he's done playing saxophone--including in his beloved groups Sons of Kemet, the Comet is Coming and Shabaka and the Ancestors--and his new solo album bears that out: it's filled with spiritual ruminations delivered on clarinet and flutes, a deeply felt work that is much different in tone than his firebrand sax work. I saw him play Pharoah Sanders' parts of Promises at the Hollywood Bowl in September, and wept for most of the performance; this album feels like a spiritual successor to Shabaka inhabiting the role of spiritual jazz's most revered monk.

 Featuring contributions from Moses Sumney--who sings his ass off--Brandee Younger, Carlos Nino, Ndudzo Makathini and a show-stopping flute performance by Andre 3000, this is my favourite album of the year so far in a walk. Can't wait for everyone to hear it.
-- Andrew Winistorfer, VMP Senior Director of Music and Editorial
