Selections from a recording made during a weekend jam session with J.D. & The Sons Of Rhythm. It was a project in which J.D. Hopkins recruited a few of his long time friends to record a progressive, largely improvised double disc album. This small group of people included Tim Smith and Jim Nordstrom formerly of Option 30, as well as J.D.'s two sons Jayson and Rickie. This selection of tracks also includes the first rendition of Fuzzy Logic (presented here as Tim's Doodle) which later appeared on the Timothy Smith Group album Persistence of memory.
