Notes
I assume that track 6 is an outtake from the New Shade of Blue sessions. (The personnel are the same.) Track 7 was originally released on Choma (Burn) (Mainstream MRL 344).

Commentary
I've not heard Damisi. The CD is difficult to find. Apparently, many collectors are trying to lay their hands on a copy, since the cost of used copies is very high.
