Oliver Lake, near Prince Rupert, BC is an area where the poor growing conditions stunt the tree growth, leading to shapes resembling a natural bonsai.

Point of No Return is the debut album by the jazz group the World Saxophone Quartet released on the Moers Music label in 1977.

The album features a live performance by alto saxophonists Julius Hemphill and Oliver Lake, tenor saxophonist David Murray and baritone saxophonist Hamiett Bluiett. It was recorded at the 6th International New Jazz Festival in Moers in June 1977.

Writer Gary Giddins commented: "little on... Point of No Return suggested serious absorption in exploring the potential of a renegade sax section (Murray's hurly-burly 'Scared Sheetless' pointedly fills most of the play time), and that little bit was by Hemphill, who always preferred group conception to workaday nightly improvisation." - Wikipedia

Enchance is an album by American jazz drummer Billy Hart recorded in 1977 and released on the Horizon label.

The Allmusic review by Eugene Chadbourne states, "The album actually seems to be something like the essence of so many enjoyable directions in improvised music during this period, and is full of the excitement such activity is known for when the action on the bandstand is at its best" - Wikipedia
