{"product_id":"william-hooker-mindfulness","title":"William Hooker - Mindfulness [2LP] [ Vinyl ]","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"41\" data-end=\"328\"\u003eWilliam Hooker’s Mindfulness captures the master percussionist in a reflective yet fiercely alive moment, balancing spiritual intention with raw improvisational force. Pressed as a spacious 2LP, this album invites deep listening and patient immersion rather than quick-hit gratification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"330\" data-end=\"745\"\u003eReleased later in Hooker’s storied career, Mindfulness feels like both a summation and a clearing of space. Hooker, long revered for his work in the free jazz and avant-garde continuum, uses this record to explore presence as a musical act. The performances unfold with a sense of ritual, shaped by decades of collaboration, community building, and fearless experimentation across the New York creative music scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"747\" data-end=\"1167\"\u003eSonically, the album thrives on tension and release. Tracks like Mindfulness and Inner Action stretch time, allowing Hooker’s drumming to breathe, crackle, and roar in equal measure. Presence leans into textured ensemble interplay, while Awareness highlights Hooker’s gift for turning rhythmic motion into emotional narrative. The music resists polish, favoring honesty, momentum, and the physicality of sound in motion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1169\" data-end=\"1528\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThis 2LP edition gives the compositions room to fully expand, rewarding listeners who approach it as an experience rather than background. Mindfulness stands as a powerful statement from an artist who has never separated sound from spirit, making this pressing an essential piece for collectors drawn to vinyl that documents lived philosophy as much as music.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54214322356553,"sku":"711574707713","price":3.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/7329\/9785\/files\/3905364.jpg?v=1776423557","url":"https:\/\/vintagespinvinyl.com\/products\/william-hooker-mindfulness","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
