The seventh of eight jazz concerts introduced by Charles Fox, in which the emphasis is more on the composer than on the performer. In this concert, recorded at the Bloomsbury Theatre, London, in November 1986, there is just one work. Lacy wrote it for two dancers, a singer and eight musicians, basing it on poems by the American poet Robert Creeley.
