Coltrane & Cecil Taylor 1958
« on: May 20, 2012, 08:17:53 AM »
1958
The beginnings of "progressive" "avant garde" Free Jazz.

Your music is contained by your mind. No one has taken control of the horizontal or vertical. It's as free as YOU want it to be. Of course freedom is only an illusion...

A groovy blues from the fifties. As usual, Kenny Dorham was solid, Coltrane too, but as usual, didn't know how to stop. The piano solo was choppy and fragmented, didn't build, was disorganized, and AWOL in general. Chuck Israel made the scene with his solo.
Dorham and Coltrane made it worth the listen.
(I hope you wanted our opinions!)

I post this stuff to share some of the music that has affected me. ;D Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...I give you freely a different perspective of what's out there. Of course in placing anything on the net one might elicit an opinion, pro or con, that's OK! I like to accentuate the Positive...catch my drift! 8)
