Ornette Coleman

Ornette Coleman's Town Hall show from December 1962 is the stuff legends are made of. He'd already made a name for himself with incredible releases on Atlantic including The Shape Of Jazz To Come and Free Jazz, but to some extent this live date feels like his free-jazz coming out party. A true artistic statement of pure free energy, this live date is both totally unhinged and completely in control. A necessary piece of free jazz history on Wax Love.
