Lovely later record by Sonny with a great band. If you love John Hicks you need to hear it!

With a Dixieland touch.  You might enjoy it, but it's not my cup of tea.

Judging by the picture, not on CD? Nevertheless, never seen this one, and I like later Simmons, especially the sessions he recorded for Quest.

Still blown away by this performance, no way, a rehearsal of a Love Supreme.

Ornette Coleman - To Whom Who Keeps a Record

 

Glad its out there. I have it and I like it. Anything from Ornette, pertaining to Atlantic, historically important.

I give up, I just can't get my computer to cooperate.

That's because her piano style is unique: Classical training, but absorbing whatever she heard and played in church as a child, then folk and jazz as she matured. She didn't care about categories or stylistics. She liked Ellington and Oscar Peterson, but never imitated anybody. Bach counterpoint and deep black people's music roots. A world of her own.

on friday there was a DJ for some Sfântu´ Valentin that was the moto of the stuff he spinned: Women in music, and on his playlist was a videoclip with her, I don´t know what the title, but some easy song with boogie rhythm which is very popular. But the DJ said he first had "Strange Fruit" on his playlist, but thought it is to heavy for that day. 
Well I would have preferred "Strange Fruit". Well this was not a jazz joint, so the playlist was also much rock, well the guy was more than ok

Same, but it isn’t the best of the outtakes records. The other two are, to my ears, on a level with the original records, whereas this one feels more like outtakes and b sides.

My favourite outtakes record for Ornette is the outtakes from Science Fiction. I forget the name. I think it’s better than the original record.

What a gift, this shit is sick:

Yeah! If you have the double CD, wow!! Really, the coolest compellation of everything Ornette was doing in 1970, love it!! My go to, before the Atlantic's, great stuff.

That double CD is just so good. I was disappointed when I first bought the LP and realised half of it wasn't there.

In many ways it is to be expected. The dividing line between the chosen take and the outtake is going to be small in jazz, and sometimes the outtakes are going to be as good if not better.

With the Ornette Atlantic outtake records, I am always impressed at how many great songs he had lying around that just didn't make it onto the official albums. 

The most extreme case from my point of view is not Ornette, but the Frank Lowe album Black Beings, for which the outtake section reintroduced on CD is substantially superior to the original LP.

It’s going to be a messy day. . . and then it will continue to be messy and colder and snowier this week. Sigh.

Starting off with this soothing disc.
