Music of Another Present Era remains Oregon’s most enduring masterwork. Achieving a perfect balance of musical traditions from the East and West, ancient to future, they set the stage not only for a new transculturalism in jazz, but also created a lasting template for the fusion of musics from world traditions that would flower over a decade later. [...] This is fusion music, to be sure, but it’s the kind of fusion musicians have been trying unsuccessfully to emulate for decades. Music of Another Present Era is one of the most poetic and groundbreaking records to be released in the 1970s. —Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

AMG Rating: 5 Stars (out of 5)  [AMG Pick]

Note:
There are two versions of this album in circulation. The record issued by Universe contains 15 tracks whereas Vanguard only lists 14. Thom Jurek talks about a bonus track on the Universe issue. In fact, the only difference is that Vanguard have decided to combine the songs “Shard” and “Spring is really coming” into one track, thus ending up with a total of fourteen.
