Only previously available on limited edition in Japan, the New York, November 9, 1956 album "Third Dimension"features the groundbreaking Roland Kirk’s first recording as a leader. Accompanied by Jimmy Madison, Carl Pruitt and Henry "Hank" Duncan, the quartet’s repertoire is madeup primarily of Kirk’ original compositions. Kirk’s second date as a leader, the album "Introducing Roland Kirk" -recorded in Chicago on June 7, 1960 -features a quintet (with Ira Sullivan on trumpet and tenor sax) which showcases Kirk’s inimitable skills as an improviser and composer.
