Ornette Coleman – New York is Now & Love Call Revisited (Ezz-thetics)

Signs of an Ornette resurgence are afoot. The original harmolodicist has been absent almost seven years, but the indelible oeuvre he left as legacy still embodies one of the cornerstones of modern jazz. Blue Note recently released a six LP set compiling Coleman’s modest catalog the label, but New York is Now & Love Call Revisited minted on the Swiss Ezz-thetics imprint beat that boutique windfall to the punch by a good month. The single disc combines, minus alternate takes, the two titular albums, which were themselves mélange like products of two studio sessions completed in the spring of 1968. Coleman was between working groups at the time, having disbanded both his classic quartet with Don Cherry and a pivotal trio with David Izenzon and Charles Moffett in the years prior.

John Coltrane had passed nine-months earlier, signaling the end of another hugely influential quartet. Bassist Jimmy Garrison and drummer Elvin Jones from the band were each working on their own projects but had time and inclination to accept Coleman’s invitation to join him on the sessions. Tenorist Dewey Redman, an old friend from Coleman’s Fort Worth origins, made the group a quartet. Popular opinion contends that the foursome wasn’t exactly a felicitous fit. Garrison and Jones were each grounded in the modal variants of jazz improvisation that their erstwhile leader helped expand and refine. Coleman’s approach focused on to applying equal value to the elements of melody, harmony, and rhythm in the service of individual an aggregate expression.

Stylistic differences between the musicians are noticeable with Jones sometimes sounding constricted by Coleman’s tempo choices and Garrison occasionally working overtime to bridge competing emphases, but the music is hardly the oil and water admixture certain critics ascribe to it. Garrison had a history with Coleman having been a former member of his quartet prior to tenure with Coltrane and was well acclimated to the earliest manifestations of the altoist’s harmolodic system. Despite the lack of prior firsthand experience, Jones was just as versatile, having worked in contexts as varied as Lee Konitz’s 1961 trio with Sonny Dallas, and Sonny Rollins’ progressively freer experiments from the tenorist’s pivotal 1957 Village Vanguard stand, forward.

Where the sessions do falter is in the varying quality of Coleman’s compositions. “The Garden of Souls” is a sprawling inaugural salvo, building gradually from unison and eliding horn volleys and anchoring Garrison bow and finger work into piquant solos. “Toy Dance,” “Broadway Blues,” and “Airborne” also feature substantial statements and flexible interplay that accentuates the personalities of the players while spooling sprightly from catchy cerulean hooks. “We Now Interrupt for a Commercial,” “Open to the Public,” and “Check Out Time” aren’t as compelling entries. The first piece feels like a slapdash novelty in its feature of the leader’s hyperventilating violin juxtaposed with interjections from a deadpan announcer’s voice, while the others fall slightly short of the energy and cohesion of their better realized siblings.

monday. alas

tried to find video david izenzon where u could see and Hear him play.... there is a trio vid with a very busy loud drummer(and sax or flute) where u can see mr izenzon but not hear much of him-damn charles moffett was a very good drummer-he didn*t need to play loud all the time and he left lots of space for ornette and izenzon to shine thru. not much available of that band alas. an aside(or sumthin) malachi favors was a great bassist-and a very nice man) AND he played in the art ensemble of chicago with don moye who had a wonderful sense of dynamics so that the other musicians could be heard-including mr favors. might post some video of those guys.... when i met don moye he told me he was from “det-riot” michigan(not “detroit”) next time i saw him he asked me “where am i from?” and i replied “det-riot”.... played a large band setting with him one night. led by roscoe mitchell it was very hot and rather loud and we were playing very hard(guitar amp was set on 11 or 12 or 13-ya know?)anyway by the end-with all those saxes playing  triple forte altissimo-mr moye had managed to fling sweat all over one side of me ..... that*s something to be PROUD of

It’s day 26 of the #loversvinylchallenge hosted by @djpennylane and @captain_dan75: Love Triangle - An Album By A Group With Only Three Members. An Evening With Ornette Coleman Part 2 (ORG Music, 2018) This @recordstoredayus 2018 release features a concert from 1965, recorded in Croydon, England. Ornette is joined by David Izenzon (bass) and Charles Moffatt (percussion) for a typically uncompromising set of free jazz. That’s not to say there isn’t a lot of play, wit, and melody in the music, it’s just that it might be put together in unusual ways. The sound is VERY thin, however, so it ends up sounding a bit like a duet between Ornette and Moffatt. Still, an important document that was long out of print on vinyl when they reissued it. #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylgram #februaryvinylchallenge #vinylgeek #vinylcollector #vinylcollection #records #vinylchallenge #vinylcommunity #freejazz @ornette.coleman #60smusic #jazz #rsd2018 https://www.instagram.com/p/CadRjoELJLT/?utm_medium=tumblr
