from the liner notes:
"In 'Harry The Hipster' Ronny Graham, who up to now has been an amiable, garrulous Dr. Jekyll, suddenly turns into a Mr. Hyde, who, smoking something that is 'not a civilian cigarette,' leads us down some eerie bypaths of progressive jazz. The words (and what passes for words) of this exercise in psychosis are Mr. Graham's own, and they have nothing in common with the evangelism of the Mr. Graham who calls himself Billy."
