This is very rare item of Steve Lacy. Series of five (or six) works of record of Lacy's visit to Japan on 1975. According to a site, only 200 copies of vinyl were issued.

I do not remeber from what site I got this file. Anyway, I want to upload this precious item of Lacy on this site,
as it is nearly impossible to obtain vinyl.

Wonderful solo play of mid 70s Lacy! Some of his funs list up this as "the most
wonderful solo work of Steve Lacy".
