The Shape Of Jazz To Come Ornette Coleman SKU: SD1317 Barcode: 4260019716064 34.00 £34.00 Genre: Jazz Label: Speakers Corner Released Date: 30th April 2021 Buying Format: 180g 1LP Add to basket Reserve Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info “The Shape Of Jazz To Come” – Ornette Coleman (as); Don Cherry (crt); Charlie Haden (b); Billy Higgins (dr) It was John Lewis, pianist of the Modern Jazz Quartet, who brought Ornette Coleman to the renowned Atlantic label, having heard him play in Los Angeles. »Ornette Coleman is doing the only really new thing in jazz …« he reportedly said. The present initial Atlantic album was released just in time to coincide with the New York debut of the Coleman Quartet in November 1959. Lewis was sure that Coleman would open up new paths for jazz, and his opinion is reflected in the title of the album – “The Shape Of Jazz To Come”. After the rather worn-out hard bop routine of the past years, this music was like a breath of fresh air. The fast numbers (“Eventuality”, “Chronology”) remind one of wildly hyped-up bebop. Other numbers (“Congeniality”, “Focus On Sanity”) juggle with catchy, almost folk like short motifs. This album contains two of Coleman’s most beautiful compositions: “Peace” and “Lonely Woman”, which was later given lyrics and often heard in its vocal version. The Mulligan-Baker Quartet provided the model for the pianoless quartet – and when the band swings along once in a while with a moderato tempo, it is truly reminiscent of cool jazz. Be that as it may, the two wind instrumentalists just love the frenetic ‘cry’ and the intentionally ‘imprecise’ interplay. Clearly defined stanzas or traditional harmonic forms were not for them. The jazz musicologist Peter N. Wilson wrote: »A record, which is not unjustifiably so entitled« about this LP which was given 5 stars by the magazine Rolling Stone. This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under www.pure-analogue.com.
