Description
Release Date Friday 2nd October 2026
All pre-orders will be dispatched/made ready for collection on that day.
The third part in Jon Hassell’s Pentimento trilogy captures the much-missed artist performing as part of a trio with Rick Cox and John von Seggern in London in 2015, in what would turn out to be his final ever concert. Carefully edited and mixed by Jeff Rona into something much more than a traditional ‘live album’; themes, motifs and riffs from his critically adored albums Listening To Pictures and Seeing Through Sound occur throughout these unique, semi-improvised mutations, making this a fitting final volume in the late career renaissance of the Pentimento series.
It contains a liner note essay by Jon Hassell that inspired the title, whilst the cover utilises Leh C’est Beau, a classic painting by Jon’s close friend Mati Klarwein, familiar to music fans through his striking 1970s album sleeves for the likes of Miles Davis and Santana.
‘Pentimento’ is defined as “the appearance in a painting of earlier images, forms, or strokes
that have been changed and painted over”, a methodology that Jon applied in a musical sense throughout his career, refining and developing his approach over time.
Alongside the release of Music Is Invisible, Ndeya have also put together a triple disc anthology of all three albums in the series.
