The Elements Description:

The Elementsoriginally released in 1973 on Milestone arrived during a time of discovery for Joe Henderson, a time to set aside the post-bop instrumentation and repertoire he was identified with and branch out into other realms. What transpired is in a league all its own. Present in the four-part improvisation that makes up the album, “Fire”, “Air”, “Water” and “Earth” are elements of spiritual jazz-fusion and beyond – celestial, cosmic, and trance-inducing in nature.
