    the fantastic Larry Coryell getting into some live Sonny Sharrock outsider psychedelic rock..,but with a grass-lawn dull professional rhythm section.. even so, Larry Coryell just kills on the outsider guitar improvisations....a great listen from start to ...never end on repeat.

      Coryell's self-titled first album is also great, but this is the true gem & indeed too short. Good to hear from you again.
