Artist: COLEMAN, ORNETTE
Title: Town Hall 1962
Label: ESP-DISK
Format: CD
Price: $13.50
Catalog #: ESPDISK 1006CD
Ornette produced this concert at Town Hall. Digitally remastered. Manufactured in the USA by the original label. New digipak format. "For this Town Hall concert, Coleman debuts with his new trio (a unit that would return in 1965) featuring the remarkable bassist David Izenson and drummer Charles Moffett. Together they perform 'Doughnut,' 'Sadness,' and an extensive 23-and-a-half minute version of 'The Ark.'" --Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

Title: Friends and Neighbors: Ornette Live at Prince Street
Label: FLYING DUTCHMAN
Format: LP
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: FDS 123LP
Grey area exact repro, including gatefold, originally released on Flying Dutchman in 1970. Recorded live at Ornette's storefront performance space "The Artists' House", located at 171 Prince Street in NYC, NY. The jam session features Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden, Ed Blackwell, and some kids from the neighborhood. Free vibes abound. "This disc contains one of Ornette Coleman's lesser-known sessions. In addition to his own alto (and occasional trumpet and violin), Coleman is joined by Dewey Redman on tenor, bassist Charlie Haden, drummer Ed Blackwell, and (on one of the two versions of 'Friends and Neighbors') a variety of friends who sing along as best they can. Actually, the most notable tracks are the two extended pieces, 'Long Time No See' and 'Tomorrow.' The music is typically adventurous, melodic in its own way, yet still pretty futuristic." --All Music Guide

Title: Whom Do You Work For?
Label: GET BACK (ITALY)
Format: CD
Price: $16.50
Catalog #: GET 2028CD
Previously issued on LP on the Unique Jazz label under the title European Concert; believe this is the first time on CD. LIve quartet performance at the Philharmonie in Berlin, West Germany, November 5, 1971. "Recorded live in Berlin in 1971, this set features Charlie Haden on bass, the prominent solos of Dewey Redman on tenor, and Ed Blackwell's delightful drumming. But the real stars are the compositions themselves, which are wonderful vehicles for inspired improvisation. Coleman picks up his bandmate's lines as if in mid-thought and extends them seamlessly."

Title: The Art of the Improvisers
Label: WATER
Format: CD
Price: $15.00
Catalog #: WATER 217CD
"Recorded between 1959 and 1961 with Ornette's classic quartet of Don Cherry, Charlie Haden and Ed Blackwell (with the notable additions of Scott LaFaro and Jimmy Garrison on a couple of tracks) this record, though not nearly as well known as This Is Our Music or The Shape Of Jazz To Come, is every bit as impressive. Improvisational but still swinging, this is a classic record from one of jazz's true originators. Contains liner notes."


Artist: COLEMAN, ORNETTE
Title: Twins
Label: WATER
Format: CD
Price: $15.00
Catalog #: WATER 218CD
"Though recorded in 1959, this album was not released until 1971. Featuring the classic Ornette Coleman quartet, this release is perhaps most notable for an early version of 'Free Jazz,' here called 'First Take,' the 40-minute version of which would make up his entire album of the same name from the following year. The four other cuts here smoke, too. Contains liner notes."
