The Inflated Tear, Rahsaan Roland Kirk, 1967, Prague.
Kirk was not one of us. He had powers and abilities beyond those of mere mortal men. A brilliant composer, an real musical innovator...he could be a one man horn section, play three saxophones, two flutes at the same time and he had mastered the Yogic technique of circular breathing. He could inhale and exhale at the same time which gave him the ability to record the longest sax solo ever made by a human with out pausing for a breath...one 25 minute+ side of the three record set, Prepare Thyself To Deal With A Miracle. Here is a cut from that recording:
