The only people present for the session were the recording engineer; the record producer, Peter Gordon; and a group of four people who sat in chairs midway between the piano and the mastering board at the back of the room. One of those four people was AAJ Contributor Lyn Horton, and she recounts the session, as well as a history of Shipp's solo recordings, in her informative profile, Matthew Shipp: Traversing The Regions of the Mind, published today at AAJ.
