This 1974 release by MLW is a revelation of all that makes Williams so unique...this is a woman who has been part of jazz since nearly the beginning. As a performer, writer and arranger, she knew and played with everyone...had performed in and ushered in every stylistic change in the genre since the 1920s. All of it shows up in her style of these later years....ageless, yet so contemporary. Meditative and spiritual bluesy....incredibly funky, yet deeply zen and spacious....as always, ever present, is that thunderously beautiful left hand of her on the keyboard.....beautiful record....beautiful.
