"Richard Koloda has been working on a biography of Albert Ayler for a number of years now and it will soon be finished. When published it will be the first book-length biography, in English, of this major figure in the Free Jazz movement..Back in October 2001 Richard filmed an interview with Donald Ayler and his father, Edward, in Cleveland."

Peter Niklas Wilson interviewed Don and Dad (who, in his 90s, was still playing golf) and published a biography of Albert in German.

I hope Koloda's book gives some insight into the Aylers' darker aspects like Albert's changing aesthetics re attracting an audience, or his mysticism, or the story about Dad pushing the very young Albert to play publicly and punishing the boy when he played wrong notes.
