D'Andrea on piano, Giovanni Tommaso on bass, and Pepito Pignatelli on drums. "This release fills a gap in Barbieri's discography. The artist we met in his first work as a leader, In Search Of The Mystery (1967), moved in the realm of pure improvisation, going in the direction of the spirituality of Albert Ayler and Pharoah Sanders. In the Roman sessions presented here, however, Barbieri recovers his original matrix deeply rooted in the language of John Coltrane and, in part, in that of early Ornette Coleman. To some extent it is a completely new Barbieri that emerges from these recordings." - Marco Giorgi
