Jazz Post-Bop Free Improvisation
Recorded: May 11, 1961
Don Ellis Quintet: Don Ellis (trumpet); Al Francis (vibraphone); Jaki Byard (piano); Ron Carter (bass); Charlie Persip (drums)
New ideas were Don Ellis's forte for all of his drastically curtailed career. A restless experimenter and innovator as well as a formidable trumpeter, Ellis was able to introduce radical ideas into his music and maintain the basic jazz values. Here, relatively early in his career, he used tone clusters, shifting rhythmic patterns, and unconventional chord progression without making the music inaccessible. In pianist Jaki Byard, bassist Ron Carter, drummer Charlie Persip, and vibraharpist Al Francis, Ellis had colleagues with the technical master and the spiritual understanding to improvise in such unorthodox settings. This 1960 session has intimations of the radical notions Ellis was to introduce in his iconoclastic big band of the later Sixties and the 1970s.
On this 1961 quintet set for Prestige (with vibraphonist Al Francis, pianist Jaki Byard, bassist Ron Carter and drummer Charlie Persip), Don Ellis experiments with time, new chord structures and free improvising; a highlight is his brief unaccompanied workout on the free form "Solo." Ellis, who switches to piano during part of "Tragedy," already had a sound of his own, although he would change the direction of his music within a few years. Even over 35 years later, his thoughtful musical experiments of the early 1960s are often quite fascinating to hear. ---Scott Yanow, allmusic
