Cultural Facts:

  1. Scene Ecology: Sharrock was a key figure in NYC’s free-jazz orbit, intersecting with Pharoah Sanders, Don Cherry, and the loft-era avant scene.

  2. Studio Lore: Recorded for BYG/Actuel in Paris during a period when European labels gave U.S. free-jazz artists rare creative freedom.

  3. Media Narrative: Later audiences rediscovered Sharrock through film soundtracks and the Ask the Ages sessions, reframing his legacy beyond the ’70s underground.
