Joe McPhee (feat. Weasel Walter) - Rotation

Joe McPhee is most notable to date for his free jazz work done in the late 1960s and early 1970s. McPhee began on trumpet at age eight before learning other instruments. He played in various high school and then military bands before starting his recording career. His first recording came in 1967, when he appeared on the Clifford Thornton album titled "Freedom and Unity". He taught himself saxphone at age 30 after experiencing the music of John Coltrane, Albert Ayler, & Ornette Coleman. He has not yet signed with any major label in his native United States, and was possibly better known throughout Europe than his native country until the 1990s. McPhee has recorded or performed with various renowned jazz musicians, including Ken Vandermark, Peter Brötzmann, Evan Parker, Mats Gustafsson, Dominic Duval, Jay Rosen, Jeb Bishop, The Thing, Clifton Hyde, Jerome Bourdellon, Raymond Boni, and countless others.

Weasel Walter overdubbed his "Rotation" from 1976 on June 12, 2007.
