Besides the gorgeous sounds of Ornette and Dewey side by side, the footage of Ed Blackwell is extraordinary. Great audio with Charlie Haden pushing the groove. Yes, Thank You! Plus look at a real theater packed in 1971 to hear these amazing artists.
Tons of great tone all thru the decades: 50s, 60s, 70s .. . all over the place, but yes indeed, Haden had an incredible ear and often made it rain. True natural.

This is gobsmackingly great! Ornette, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden and Ed Blackwell firing on all cylinders. They were on such a creative high at this point. Thanks for sharing.
Ornette played a big part in my musical education; if his forays into trumpet and violin meant nothing to me, that doesn't negate that big influence from the early Sixties. It was great to finally see Ed Blackwell after hearing him on ORNETTE!.
Thanks, this is fantastic. I saw this great lineup in 72 or 73 when I was a teenager.. Wonderful stuff. I think Ed Blackwell was the perfect drummer for Ornette. There's something so cool and mysterious about the tune "Street Woman" (from the album "Science Fiction") Thanks again
Thanks so much, Jay!! This is the work that got me into jazz. Fucking love Science Fiction! Recommended back then by Weasel! I got my local dive to put Law Years on the juke. Goes over 50/50 with the patrons. Lol

To my opinion these were the glorydays of Ornette, with this line up. Dewey Redman (!) plays a whole different stuff than his son Joshua Redman does! I used to listen a lot to the music of Ornette, now I left this music behind and preferr the music of Joshua and all the great saxophonists of the present time.
@@emilianoturazziLast answer : do you understand what Free-jazz is ? LISTEN "Naked city" first album (all structures are unit : Cecil Taylor) ; please hear musics (like you said) ; learn what "harmodologie is (Ornette Coleman game and composition) ; now stop
@@emilianoturazzi Absolutly that ; this is the same song's mood ; it's "Song for Ché" : a piece who i heard on tape with Free-jazz reccorded in 64 ; what do you want : when someone writte AABA structure (they don't know : Free-jazz is play the "charleston ; Ragtime ; Swing or Be-bop in deconstrution" ; they just don't know. If i asking what is the "Ornette album who follow 71 : i'm sure they don't know " VIRGIN BEAUTY...
@@EH_ALLE_DOOF Do you speak french ? No ; i'm sure so.... Now you want forget Liebman ? Ok so : Anthony Braxton ; Archie Shepp (i was played with him & Mino Cinelu) ; Michel Portal ; Louis Sclavis ; Jimmy Lyons ; Ken Mc Intyre ; Eric Dolphy it's enough for you ?) Dave Liebman is (with Albert Ayler and Wayne Shorter) the musicians who follow Coltrane vision maybe you think not like me but don't give me an order
@@PIERRE-ERNEST I love al these guys you are posting here... Portal is one of my greatest heroes. And Dolphy is GOD. But I don't like Liebman, since Peter Kowald (my best friend) gave me the ECM record Lookout Farm...
