2023 reissue of this classic solo outing by the renowned South African band leader and composer Chris McGregor, recorded live in his adopted homeland of France in 1977

Best known as a member of the Blue Notes and leader of the international big band the Brotherhood of Breath, McGregor rarely recorded solo; his two recitals for the French Musica label have long since disappeared, and In His Good Time has been unavailable for many years.

This reissue comes directly from the original unedited analogue tapes and boasts a wealth of bonus material, restoring in its entirety the frst set of the evening, a continuous performance of original works and arrangements of traditional South African folksongs. Five tracks edited from the second set complete the
collection.
