It is an impeccable pressing with very fine sound. I have an original and it's a wonderful album. If you can spring for a high quality reissue, do so.

Alas, my deck is out of action pending some servicing so it’s CD only at the moment. Quote

Like you described, it was an album that left a BIG impression early in my process of discovering jazz. Now spinning: Cuber sure does make a fantastic sound on the bari.

Gheorghe Posted January 18, 2022 Report Posted January 18, 2022 I bought it in the 70´s, I don´t have many of that silver cover series, maybe "Ornette Coleman´s Free Jazz" and "Mingus Blues and Roots", and for more easy listening the then very popular "Les McCann Eddie Harris Montreux 1969". At that time I was astonished that "Avantgarde" was quite traditional, it´s all straight ahead swing, and they don´t really go "far out". But this was still in 1960, when there was still a lot of the old hard bop. But they all sound wonderful, "The Blessing" is one of the most traditional compositions of Coleman, also a very interesting version of it is on the 1958 Hillcrest Club recording, sometimes released under the leadership of Paul Bley, though he is barely audible on those. Both Trane and Cherry loved "Bemsha Swing". Trane played it with Monk, and Don recorded it on several occasions.... Quote
