The "Necromancer" label—which reissues rare titles from niche, collector-driven, handmade labels using official master sources—now presents "Headless Hawk," a premier collector’s label specializing in jazz. These rare titles are being re-released at an accessible price point, featuring new reissue branding and updated back-cover artwork.

This is a 2008 live recording of Return to Forever. As it is an audience recording, the sound quality is good, though the presence of cheers and applause may be distracting for some—perhaps not the best choice for a casual listener or newcomer. Return to Forever stands alongside Weather Report as one of the definitive fusion bands of the 1970s. This release features the classic, powerhouse quartet that recorded the masterpiece *Romantic Warrior*; highlights include Al Di Meola’s Latin-infused guitar work and Chick Corea’s distinctive phrasing, which evoke an exotic, Spanish-inspired sound.
