Sealed 1977 Burbank Street Scene Label Original. “Shortly After Rahsaan Roland Kirk Finished His First Album For Warner Brothers, He Suffered A Major Stroke That Put Him Out Of Action And Greatly Shortened His Life. His Second LP For The Label Was Actually Comprised Of Leftovers From The Earlier Session Plus Three Songs Taken From An Appearance At The Montreux Jazz Festival; The Latter Has Been Reissued On CD In A Sampler But The Other Selections (Which Include "Serenade To A Cuckoo," His Cover Of "This Masquerade," "Sugar," "The Christmas Song" And "Bright Moments") Remain Out Of Print. This LP (Which Finds Him Mostly Sticking To Tenor), Kirk's Next-To-Last Album, Has Enough Highlights To Make It Worth Searching For.” Scott Yanow,, All Music Guide.
