High energy jazz is the cornerstone of Italian group Nexus, this reissue of their 1983 debut album includes one bonus track and is appearing on CD for the first time. Originally a quartet, it expanded to a quintet in 1983 with the addition of trumpeter Pino Minafra. It was this expanded lineup that recorded their popular crowd pleaser Open Mouth Blues composed by the group's drummer Tiziano Tononi.
