Winged Serpent (Sliding Quadrants)
"...Densely characterized though Taylor's music is, these musicians make their way into it with the highest courage, and the result is extraordinarily compelling."
"Utilizing what was called an "Orchestra of Two Continents," pianist Cecil Taylor has a larger orchestra for this Soul Note release than usual. The 11-piece group is filled with brilliant and adventurous players... On the four Taylor originals, the colorful ensembles are quite dense although there is room for individual solos and heroics. Not too surprisingly Cecil Taylor is very much in control of the music..." (source: AllMusic.com, S. Yanow)
