Finnish percussionist Edward Vesala’s debut on ECM Records may also be his most fiery outing for the label. On the album, Vesala assembles a particularly lively big band of Finns, who interpret his music with blazing colours. In 1976, when the album was released, Melody Maker suggested that “John Coltrane might have made music like this had he been born a European. ‘Nad Madol’ is an orgy of sound, no other description can suffice and ‘Areous Vlor Ta’ remains one of the most extraordinary and moving big band scorings…. Put it next to ‘Ascension’ in your collection.”
Das Debüt des Schlagzeugers Edward Vesala bei ECM Records ist vielleicht auch sein feurigster Auftritt beim Label. Für das Album stellte Vesala eine besonders lebendige finnische Big Band zusammen, die seine Musik mit leuchtenden Farben interpretiert. 1976, als das Album erschien, schwärmte das Magazin Melody Maker, dass „John Coltrane diese Musik vielleicht geschaffen hätte, wäre er als Europäer auf die Welt gekommen. Nad Madol ist eine Klangorgie, für die keine andere Beschreibung ausreicht, und ‚Areous Vlor Ta‘ bleibt eine der außergewöhnlichsten und bewegendsten Big-Band-Bearbeitungen.... Am besten neben 'Ascension' in die Plattensammlung stellen."
