FRKWYS Vol. 18: Extended Field witnesses Horse Lords and Arnold Dreyblatt in deep collaboration, melting minimal composition and polyrhythmic invention into a sprawling sound experiment.

He had huge creative appetites (as well as being hot tempered), creating his own combination of hard bop, blues, and avant-garde jazz.

Spontaneous tribalisms tainted with concrete sounds support the looming psychedelic vein, with different solutions from track to track.
