Avant-Garde
Free Jazz
Remastered reissue of 1959 album from one of the most important (& controversial) innovators of the jazz avant-garde, features five tracks, packaged in a digipak.
Released originally in 1959, TWINS gathers the tracks that didn't make it onto Ornette Coleman's studio albums during his tenure at Atlantic Records. "First Take" is a rehearsal version of the saxophonist's famous "Free Jazz" piece (featured on the Atlantic album of the same name), and has Coleman's two dazzling quartets (which featured, between them, trumpeters Don Cherry and Freddie Hubbard, reedist Eric Dolphy, bassists Charlie Haden and Scot Lafaro, and drummers Ed Blackwell and Billy Higgins) playing at the same time.
"Monk and the Nun" is another highlight from the remaining four tracks, especially the solos from Cherry and the leader. This compilation doesn't have the brilliance of Coleman's Atlantic classics like THE SHAPE OF JAZZ TO COME, and is therefore not essential, but there's enough impressive playing here to make it worthwhile for Coleman fans.
The five performances on this LP were not released until 1971. Of greatest interest is a shorter version of the nearly 40-minute "Free Jazz," which at 17 minutes was simply titled "First Take." In addition, the innovative altoist is heard on four quartet numbers with cornetist Don Cherry, either Charlie Haden or Scott LaFaro on bass and Ed Blackwell or Billy Higgins on drums; "First Take" has all of these musicians plus bass clarinetist Eric Dolphy and trumpeter Freddie Hubbard. All of this valuable music, which also includes "Little Symphony" and "Monk and the Nun," has been reissued on Rhino's Complete Ornette on Atlantic CD box set.
