Bassist Barry Guy, pianist Howard Riley, and violinist Philipp Wachsmann recorded the first eight of these trio improvisations in 1977, and they were released on LP the following year. Instead, the musical interest comes from the rhythmic and textural interaction between the three players; Wachsmann and Guy both make liberal use of electronic amplification and devices, with the result that their instruments are not easily recognizable as a violin and a contrabass; Riley's technique is more conventional, though on several tracks (notably "Trio Five" and "Trio Ten") he dampens the piano.
