To say this is a little obscure is kinda understated. Of interest today in remembering Jack Bruce, particularly. IIRC, the original pressing was under 1000 copies. Jacks Traveling Band Carla Bley (organ) John McLaughlin (guitar) Jack Bruce (bass) Paul Motian (drums) Escalator Over the Hill is more than two hours long and was recorded over three years (1968 to 1971). It was originally released as a triple LP box which also contained a booklet with lyrics, photos and profiles of the musicians. Side six of the original LPs ended in a locked groove, the final track ...And Its Again continuing infinitely on manual record players. (For the CD reissue, the hum is allowed to play for almost 20 minutes before slowly fading out.)
