Wikipedia:

Miroslav Vitous Group is an album by Czech bassist Miroslav Vitous recorded in 1980 and released on the ECM label.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Eugene Chadbourne awarded the album 2½ stars stating "This is an album that flutters between different jazz camps in a manner that might seem indecisive, and probably really is. It is hard to imagine exactly what sort of listener would really be pleased by the results, but also just as hard to deny the existence of excellent playing here and there".
