Just fantastic music, and I so very much appreciate having this opportunity to hear it. <br /><br />I know some people (or idiots, as I think of them)believe that posting on blogs like this (for love rather than money) is somehow depriving someone of cash they deserve, but personally I think that there is a greater crime committed by those who by neglect allow this brilliant music to become unavailable. As far as I can tell this lp has been out of print since I was twelve years old.

After this one he would head off in another direction, to concoct the indo-jazz fusions, at a time when nobody thought of any world music label to attach to it ...<BR/><BR/>Sotise ... the Coleman comparisons may not be so fitting, at least not in terms of any stilistic similarities. For example, Coleman did not have a piano plyer and Pat Smythe is quite integral to the overall Harriott group sound. If they have any validity, it may be that both were contemporaneous innovators and fully unaware of each other's work ...<BR/><BR/>West Coast influences ... well, the left coast tends to be somewhat overshadowed by the right coast ... for sure, there are things to be explored in more detail ... anything to be posted here?<BR/><BR/>George Russell ... yes, another innovator, though not as radical as some of the others. He's definitely east coast until he turned "scandinavian" in the late 60s. I will get to his scandinavian period in due course. BTW, the early Riversides are musts, all four of them.<BR/><BR/>Cent ... the Free Form is listed in amazon co uk as a cd release from this year.
