Title Description:
This album truly is something different. Predating Wishart's excellent "Red Bird" (reissued in the 1990s on the CD Red Bird/Anticredos), Journey Into Space was composed over the course of three years (1970-1972) and self-released the next year in the form of two separate LPs sold by the composer himself. In early 2002, the Paradigm label reissued the complete work on one CD. With its total duration of 79 minutes (quite ambitious in those days) and its then-unique amalgam of concrete sounds, tampered bits of free improvisation, and scored musical events, the work stands out. Yes, as Wishart himself points out in the new liner notes, some transitions are crude.
