DESCRIPTION
Reese And The Smooth Ones by Art Ensemble of Chicago is a landmark release in avant-garde jazz, originally recorded in the late 1960s and now presented in a deluxe, limited edition remaster. This 1-LP pressing from Holland captures the ensemble at a moment of deep experimentation and expressive freedom, blending structured improvisation with ritualistic soundscapes. Known for their innovative use of silence, texture, and unconventional instruments, the Art Ensemble creates a deeply immersive listening experience.
This remastered edition is housed in a gatefold sleeve and includes a specially designed insert, offering deeper insight into the group's philosophy and sonic vision. A must-have for collectors and fans of free jazz and the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).
