The title track and “Eat That Question” give the musicians room to stretch, while “Blessed Relief” closes the album with a quieter, more reflective mood. Released in 1972, it belongs to the same big-band period as Waka \/ Jawaka.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollector Note\u003cbr\u003eThis Rykodisc CD, catalog RCD 10026, was first issued on CD in 1986; the supplied release notes estimate that this green-case repress dates from around 1992–1993. Its track order follows the original LP, beginning with “For Calvin (And His Next Two Hitch-Hikers)” before the title track; the later 1995 Rykodisc edition reverses those first two tracks. The rear insert says “Manufactured in Japan,” while the disc face says “Manufactured in USA.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailability\u003cbr\u003eSingle copy available—once it’s gone, it’s gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition \u0026amp; Details\u003cbr\u003eCD: VG+\u003cbr\u003eCase: VG+\u003cbr\u003eBooklet: VG+\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical Details\u003cbr\u003eFormat: CD, Album, Reissue\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Rykodisc – RCD 10026\u003cbr\u003eCountry: US\u003cbr\u003eReleased: 1986 (green-case repress estimated around 1992–1993)\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz, Rock\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Fusion, Avantgarde\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatrix \/ Runout\u003cbr\u003eNot specified\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist\u003cbr\u003eFor Calvin (And His Next Two Hitch-Hikers) 6:06\u003cbr\u003eThe Grand Wazoo 13:21\u003cbr\u003eCletus Awreetus-Awrightus 2:57\u003cbr\u003eEat That Question 6:43\u003cbr\u003eBlessed Relief 8:03\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShipping \u0026amp; Handling\u003cbr\u003eCleaned with alcohol swabs.\u003cbr\u003eShipped in protective CD bags.\u003cbr\u003eCracked cases replaced before shipping.\u003cbr\u003ePacked securely for safe delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout Maple City Music\u003cbr\u003eMaple City Music is a veteran-owned record store in Vermont focused on honest grading, fair pricing, and high-quality media.
