Rahsaan Roland Kirk ‘Seek & Listen: Live At The Penthouse’ is a never-before-released recording of the luminous multi-instrumentalist Rahsaan Roland Kirk recorded live at the Penthouse jazz club in Seattle, WA on August 12 and 19, 1967 with pianist Rahn Burton, bassist Steve Novosel and drummer Jimmy Hopps.

Released in cooperation with Kirk’s widow, Dorthaan Kirk of the Rahsaan Roland Kirk Estate, this infectious music was originally recorded by radio DJ Jim Wilke for KING-FM radio.

Transferred from the original tapes and restored and mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab, ‘Live At The Penthouse’ was pressed at the respected audiophile pressing plant Le Vinylist in Quebec, Canada.

The limited-edition 180-gram 2-LP edition includes an extensive booklet with rare photographs from Jan Persson, Tom Copi, Rolf Ambor and others, newly commissioned liner notes by authors John Kruth and May Cobb, and interviews and testimonials from saxophone icons James Carter and Chico Freeman, trombonist Steve Turre, Dorthaan Kirk, Adam Dorn – son of long-time Kirk producer and champion Joel Dorn, and others.
