1966 Live Groove Gem

Fantastic live performance captured in Harlem, February 1966. The opening tracks on each side, "Impulsion" and "Organic" are both exceptional, and the entire album grooves incredibly, featuring just a core trio of organ, guitar, and drums. This is a 1966 stereo pressing, with distinct separation and excellent range from top to bottom. My copy is in mint condition, both jacket (still in shrink wrap) and vinyl (looks and sounds brand new).
