2011 release. Deep archeology into a long buried and previously undocumented chapter in the history of the early '70s loft era brings forth the revelatory Father of Origin, Eremite's box set retrospective of percussionist and bassist Juma Sultan's Aboriginal Music Society. Drawn from Sultan's mammoth private archive of recordings, this groundbreaking set includes two audiophile LPs and a CD, a 28-page 12" x 12" book featuring previously unpublished photographs and ephemera, and a detailed historical essay by jazz scholar Michael Heller, all manufactured to highest quality-freak standards. This old school multimedia extravaganza exposes some of the most extraordinary and explosive free jazz of the period to the light of day for the first time. Established by Sultan and percussionist Ali Abuwi in Woodstock in 1968, Aboriginal Music Society was both a radical arts organization and a killer band. For ten years, Sultan and the loose alliance of like-minded musicians in AMS produced independent concerts, owned and operated their own recording studio, and collaborated with legendary artist-run New York loft space Studio We on performances and educational programs. But during that whole time, they never released a record. Inspired by an emerging understanding of African cultures and the political ideas of the black power moment, AMS synthesized an African approach to percussion and collective performance with the revolutionary jazz of it's day. In open-ended free improvisations they played an incendiary mix of massive trap kit, hand drum grooves, and heaven-storming free jazz. The first of the set's two LPs, a 1970 Boston studio date, features a New York-Woodstock sextet - including Sultan, Abuwi, Gene Dinwiddie, Philip Wilson, Ralph Walsh, and Earl Cross - engaged in a characteristically percussion-heavy improvisation. The other vinyl disc features a private jam session by Sultan, Abuwi, and saxophonist Frank Lowe at the Broadway headquarters of AMS. Recorded in April 1971, it predates by several months Lowe's recording debut on Alice Coltrane's World Galaxy. The CD features yet another historic meeting - an undated concert with the Woodstock crew and a trio of Midwesterners recently relocated to New York - saxophonist Julius Hemphill, cellist Abdul Wadud, and drummer Charles "Bobo" Shaw, all members of the St. Louis music and arts collective, Black Artists Group. Father of Origin is presented in a heavyweight telescoping box in paper wraps screen-printed by Alan Sherry at Siwa, who also screen-printed the LP sleeves, CD jacket, and additional loose memorabilia.

Perfectly fitted shorts with great stretch and comfort for the price
Color: 311 White, Size: Large, Color: 311 White, Size: Large
These shorts quickly became a favorite. The fit is spot on — snug in the right places without being restrictive, which gives them a really flattering look. The material feels high quality for the price, and there’s enough stretch built in to make them extremely comfortable for everyday wear. What stands out most is the value. For the cost, the combination of fit, comfort, and durability is hard to beat. They move easily with you, whether you’re lounging, walking, or being active, and they don’t lose their shape after wear. Overall, these shorts hit the sweet spot between style, comfort, and affordability. If you want something that looks fitted, feels good, and won’t break the bank, this is an excellent choice.

Very nice shirt, runs a little big depending on how you like it to fit
Color: 311 Black, Size: Medium
We got it specifically for the black and white stripes. My husband typically wears a medium. We buy the WYR shirts for him since they have a tapered, flattering fit. I initially ordered the medium but it was too big and baggy especially in the waist. We ended up getting the small and it fits perfect. I really like the hand of the fabric.

Seems great so far - 3 washes and nothing but good things to say
Color: 311 White, Size: Large
Shirt looks great colors wise and it's lasted perfectly so far in limited washing (cold water + dryer). There's a bit of stretch above and beyond what cotton normally does (from the nylon or lycra I believe) but you can't tell unless you're putting the shirt on. As for fit - fits me perfectly. I tend to be more of a large in the shoulders and a medium at the waist, but this shirt is great for me. Def more of a fitted look but NOT jersey shore douchey type fitted. EDIT - +1 year and shirt is still going strong. No rips tears, etc. I've washed cold and warm, tumble dry medium

Comfortable, and surprisingly good quality
Color: 31260 Green, Size: Large
Super comfortable and stretchy, worked great for my chicken little costume. I’ve washed it about 5 or 6 times now and it hasn’t shrunk or gotten pilly or anything.

Good fit, but thin material and average color
Color: 31230 White Black, Size: 3X-Large
The sizing on this T shirt is accurate. It fits well and feels comfortable in terms of shape and length. The cut is true to size, so I did not have any issues there. However, the material is much thinner than expected. It feels lightweight, which may be fine for hot weather, but it does not feel very premium or durable. I was expecting slightly thicker cotton based on the description. The color is also not as nice as it appears in the pictures. It looks a bit dull in person compared to the online images. Considering the thin material and overall quality, the price feels a little high for what you get. It is not a bad shirt, but I expected better value for the money. Overall, the fit is good, but the material thickness and color quality could be improved.
