ノート
Recording date April 30, May 11, 1975. Recorded at Yamaha Music Foundation.
Originally due to be released on the ESP label (artwork had already been created), but the label collapsed before it came out.
Track 4 is a bonus CD track, not scheduled to appear on the original LP.
This is the second CD reissue of this material and comes in a mini-LP sleeve that reproduces how the ESP release would have looked, including an ESP catalog number, 3023.

The first 300 copies of the CD came with a bonus live CDr, recorded on 28 November 1984 in Hakodate, Hokkaido.
Meta Improvisation was the title that Takayanagi gave to short-lived experiments from 1984 to 1985 that incorporated elements of automatic playing using motors and electronics. Once he began 'Action Direct' performances in 1985, he ceased to use the name Meta Improvisation.

長詩『荒地』、詩劇『寺院の殺人』などを著したイギリスの詩人T.S.エリオットの詩からタイトルや曲名を命名した高柳昌行 New Direction Unitの75年録音作品「April Is The Cruellest Month」。米国のフリージャズ/アヴァンギャルド大名門ESP Diskのために大橋邦夫の企画でスタジオ・レコーディング、テストプレスまで製作されたとされるも当時は発売されず、後年になってApril DiskやJinya DiscからようやくCD化されることとなった伝説の失われた名盤が、実験パフォーマンスのプレゼンと保存に力を注ぐキュレーション・プラットフォーム、非営利団体であり、David GrubbsやKim Gordon、Aki Onda、Marina Rosenfeldなども運営に携わっているBlank Forms Editionsから史上初のヴァイナル・リイシュー決定です！高柳昌行(1932 - 1991)の最重要タイトルの一つにも数えられる大傑作が遂にレコード化！大友良英やジム・オルークにも影響を及ぼしたことでも知られ、1970年にはコンサート「解体的交感」にて阿部薫と共演、ギター・レッスンの私塾では、渡辺香津美や山本恭司、今井和雄といった名演奏家を輩出し、日本の前衛音楽ムーブメントをリードした即興演奏家/フリージャズ・ギタリストの巨匠として決して忘れてはならない存在。高柳昌行（ギター）、森剣治（アルト・サックス、フルート、バス・クラリネット）、井野信義（ベース、チェロ）、山崎弘（ドラムス、パーカッション）という布陣による、ジャパノイズの夜明けとも言っても過言ではない規格外の芸術的エネルギーが驚異の音世界を育みます。Peter Brötzmann「Machine Gun」やJohn Coltrane「The Olatunji Concert」、Dave Burrell「Echo」といったフリージャズの金字塔にも劣らぬ強度を秘めた歴史的音源。Sonny Sharrock、Derek Bailey、灰野敬二、全てのフリー・ミュージック・ファン必携の一枚.（引用）

"Barring some miraculous discovery (never out of the question!), Mars Archives Volume Three: N.N. End is the final LP in our series of LPs documenting the music of New York's most amazing combo of the No Wave era, Mars. From their more-quotidian beginnings as China, whose sound was influenced by the Velvets and Television, Mars mutated and grew in a variety of nearly unchartable directions. N.N. End documents the latter, immaculate stages of the band's destruction of song forms once and for all. The A-side captures a live show at Max's Kansas City in July 1978. They were still playing some of the songs from the No NY compilation, which had not yet been released. Their sound had moved on since the recording session, however, and you can hear the songs dissolving structurally as they move along. Pretty amazing. The B-side is from a rehearsal tape recording while they prepped for their final show (at Max's in December 1978.) At this point, Mars was shredding the cocoon that had held their music. Then shredding the music itself. Vocals, guitars, rhythms all come apart in clumps, taking on lives of their own. Beyond good and evil, Mars stood alone. And then they were gone. Hope you've followed their contrail." --Byron Coley, 2019

"The second amazing volume (of three), compiled by Mark Cunningham after culling every known live tape of Mars, documents the band in its first fully-matured form. Recorded at CBGB and Max's in the early months of 1978, this captures the sound of Mars around the time their first single, '3E/11000 Volts,' was released by the French Rebel label (a precursor of ZE). They're still playing their early songs, and working out the material that would be on No New York (LR 102CD/LP). Two of the tracks ('Cairo' and 'RTMT') were never released in any form back in the day, and the whole album surges along like one of the weirdest rock rides anybody has ever imagined. There are still small tendrils of the more formal approach Mars took in their earliest days, but the function of the material is on its way to becoming utterly alien. Even though I saw the band around this time, the incredible strangeness of their approach is astonishing. Words fail me. No one else has ever created anything quite like the wall of sound they managed. On the second side, as an added bonus, the audience source tape is full of hooting and hollering by people like Lydia Lunch, Bradley Field, Kristian Hoffman, and various other reprobates with whom they were sharing rehearsal space at the time. Package looks great, too. Grainy, just the way it should be. Has an insert with brief notes by Mark, a couple of pics and handwritten lyrics that read better than I'd ever imagined them to be. Essential stuff." -- Byron Coley, 2016. Edition of 500.

"Following the success of the two live LPs bookending Mars's trajectory through the skies of NYC, Mark Cunningham was convinced to return to his legendary box of cassettes. Even he was surprised to discover the band's earliest shows (done under the name China) were there, amidst a tumble of other tapes. Thus, the idea was born for a trilogy of LPs tracing Mars's development from their first audition gig at CBGB through the shows following their 1980 Lust/Unlust EP. China to Mars is the first volume, and really displays for the first time how much the band's earliest music was a mutated variation on some of NYC's extant juggernauts, in particular Television and the Patti Smith Group. While their sound was clearly their own, the textures and techniques they're using to achieve them are far less alien than they'd become. Side one was recorded at China's audition night at CBGB in Feb. '77, and their follow-up show in June. It's amazing how good it sounds. And the songs are almost all unheard (apart from 'Cry,' which appeared on the 2012 Anòmia tape box). Even "3E" is nearly unrecognizable from its released version recorded the following year. The second side is from Sept. '77, once they had started calling themselves Mars. The shuddering blocks of sound for which they are known are beginning to coalesce, and Sumner's dark vocals are pushed to the fore. The music is stunning. You can hear the band on the very cusp of transforming itself into the group that recorded those incredible early sides. Wow, can't wait for the next two volumes" --Byron Coley, 2015. Edition of 800.
