That was actually the mockup sleeve. Here's the finished article. Keep an eye on Bandcamp tomorrow.
Blurb is as follows:

COMING SOON
Group Sounds Four & Five: Black & White Raga
(JIB-14-M-LP vinyl & download).

Two sessions previously assumed either lost or unrecorded, by Henry Lowther’s and Lyn Dobson’s mid-sixties groups. Considered one of the missing links in the development of British free-form jazz.

The Group Sounds Four session includes Jack Bruce, who contributes an original composition never otherwise recorded. Also features Ron Rubin, Ken McCarthy and Jon Hiseman. With comprehensive notes by Duncan Heining concerning the historical significance of these recordings.

From tapes in Jon Hiseman’s archive. Sensational audio quality.

Wow...just wow! And are all these going to be vinyl releases? As @Skalap says, we will be full in for these!

Definitely! If the music and the release are at the same quality level as the records I already have, I know I won't be disappointed.

We had the test pressings about three weeks ago so hopefully, yes.

I'm sure I'm jumping ahead of the email here, but its currently live now @Skalap - Black & White Raga, by Group Sounds Four & Five

@britprogjazz I will say it again, this looks to be a fantastic release. I have been on a British jazz binge lately but one area I haven't yet delved into is free jazz, so im sure this will scratch that itch! Cheers

Lunch time band camp rabbit hole.

Order the Black & White Raga. Bandcamp recommends, Joy Unlimited by Harry Beckett. That sounds good, there are only 7 left, I'll get one of those. Oh, might as well add a copy of, As We Stand by Tori Handsley to save on shipping.

back on to zoom :(
