Ornette Coleman This Is Our Music (CD) (UK IMPORT)

Description: Further DetailsTitle: This Is Our MusicCondition: NewFormat: CDDescription: AMAZON Alto sax player Ornette Coleman released six highly influential (not to mention controversial) albums on Atlantic between 1958-61, which changed the direction of jazz. This was their third of the series and the first to have Ed Blackwell on drums. It continued tearing up the rulebook and instead of Coleman's and pocket trumpeter Don Cherry playing solos using chordal improvisation they just played freely where the mood took them. This was the birth of free jazz. In actual fact with the hindsight of what was to follow the revolutionary nature of the music may have been lost (in all the tracks a tune is quite evident!). However what has not faded over time is the total nerve tingling hair raising brilliance of them. The whole quartet (the last member being one of the greatest bassist's of all time, Charlie Haden) simply burn with passion. One of the tracks is "Beauty is a rare thing", it is indeed, and this is it. --Phil BrettGenre: JazzArtist: Ornette ColemanNo Of Discs: 1Record Label: AtlanticEAN: 0075678076725 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
