Confusing medieval depiction of Roman god Saturn devouring his son, which mixes the Greek Chronos (Χρόνος, Khronos, Latinised as Chronus), the personification of time in pre-Socratic philosophy and later literature, known for devouring his own children, with the Titan Cronus (Κρόνος, Krónos), who castrated his father Uranus with a scythe.

Roland Kirk

Introducing Roland Kirk, Featuring Ira Sullivan

@ 70s US Pressing

*****

Introducing Roland Kirk is the second album by jazz multi-instrumentalist Roland Kirk. It was originally released on the Argo label in 1960. And it’s become Chess Label upon reissue in the 70s.  It features performances by Kirk with Ira Sullivan, William Burton, Donald Garrett and Sonny Brown. The Allmusic review by Lindsay Planer states “Although Kirk’s performances are exceedingly reserved on this album, there is little doubt of his technical proficiencies. The three sides penned by Kirk are among the most interesting as they allow for a certain degree of openness that is essential when spotlighting his unique talents… Although some free jazz and avant-garde purists may find Introducing Roland Kirk not challenging enough, it provides a solid basis for his increasingly bombastic post-bop experiments throughout the remainder of the ‘60s and ‘70s”.
