This recording is pretty bad memories for me! It was meant to be an LP, but there were problems with the recording and it could not be put on vinyl without some serious distortion! So we had to lop off a lot of the lows, and lost a lot of audio quality, and released it as a cassette. I can’t stand cassettes, I know people like them, but oh my gosh. But anyways, I do still like the music on this tape, so go have a listen if you like.

“‘Six Improvisations’ captures all of the excitement of Liz’s live excursions, while offering what might be more private expressions from an enclosed studio environment. Captured in but a few evenings, we find Liz exploring heights of spiritual wander, spectral ecstasy, tension and release, abandoning this reality for myriad others, yet never relinquishing command of the keys.
Flowing from one structural invention to another, clouds of sustain crackle, twinkling rhythms jump and skitter about, melodies flow. Modern pastorals, cerebral invocations, sure-handed melodic puzzles that resolve, implode, dissolve, and in some instances cease to exist. Moods are often folded in on themselves, further and further articulating the dimensions of some obscure sound Liz pulls out of her imagination.”
