Wow. Recognize most of 'em, but who are in Other Dimensions of Music?

Apparently it's yet another downtown jazz project featuring, you guessed it, William Parker.

Other Dimensions has been around for decades. It's Parker w/ Rashied Bakr, Daniel Carter, and Roy Campbell. In the late 70s they were called Muntu, wth Jemeel Moondoc in place of Carter.

The records are passable, but they are utter and total hot shit live!
