Check out what I got from the public library! 10 disks of Albert Ayler is right. I got it for free so I thought you should too.
The
'truth' is that there are only 9 discs, but that's just the 'truth,'
you understand? Reality is different than truth it seems. . . .
Disks 1-7 & 10 are music. Featured are seminal tracks like Ghosts, Spirits Rejoice, and
Bells.
8
+ 9 are interviews. Let's you know a bit
more about the organism himself and all his thought processes and that.
Mostly
live recordings, even a set from Coltrane's funeral. All types of free jazz musicians are here, including
Pharoah Sanders; Cecil Taylor; and Sam Rivers, who we all know was on
Conference of the Birds. . .. . if not, now we do.
Too overbearing an introduction to Mr. Ayler's work? Check out his breakout album
Spiritual Unity instead, than come right back here for more.
