The tune is "Lord Sideways" from Ramon Morris "Sweet Sister Funk" LP.

By the way, the Cisco Bradley liner notes are from this book, that will be published soon: I Hear Freedom. The Great Migration, Free Jazz, and Black Power

Wow, fantastic reissue. It exceeds my expectations. I also received vol. 2 of book Freedom Rhythm & Sound, lots of rare covers.

Mine just arrived to Spain, waiting for delivery. 🙂

Because the women leaders clue. It could be Mary Lou Williams and I found the theme on the Chronological Classics CD 1945-1947. I think the most difficult to find was Myra Melford, but I recognized the guitarist (Liberty Ellman) and I remembered that he was on that record.

Full Moon Ensemble is way more "spiritual jazz".

10. Unexpected find. "Kool", Mary Lou Williams. w/ Kenny Dorham, Johnny Smith and Gracham Moncur. The women leaders work.

1 & 13 are really intriguing, most of the musicians seem familiar to me, I should identify them.

3. Just got another one. "Language", Myra Melford from Snowy Egret.

8. OK, "Rapid shave", Shirley Scott from Queen of the organ live at the Front Room. Very nice tune.

4. Just I got it, Patricia Brennan "Andromeda" from Of the near and far.

1. The beginning sounds like post-free, but then turns into contemporary jazz rhythm. Disoriented. 2. "Black crow", live Joni. 3. It sounds like an eighties ECM to me, maybe I'll try later, something familiar. 4. Too bombastic. Not my cup of tea. 5. Geri Allen. I don't recognize the theme. Edit: "Red velvet in winter" from Flying toward the sound. 6. It leaves me indifferent. 7. "Evil Gal blues", Jeanne Lee with Ran Blake. Wonderful. 8. Soul jazz, maybe a Prestige, I don't recognize the sax now. 9. I think the singer is unknown to me, but maybe I'm wrong. 10. Too old for me to recognize this. 11. "What's new", not my fav singer style. 12. Completely disoriented at the moment. 13. Contemporary jazz, I don't like too much.

Some "essentials" by musicians not in the book: Bill Dixon, Intents and purposes. Lowell Davidson, id. Muhal Richards Abrams, Levels and degrees of light. Joseph Jarman, Song for. John Carter - Bobby Bradford, Seeking. Gracham Moncur III, New Africa. Jacques Coursil, Black suite. Arthur Jones, Scorpio. Amalgam, Prayer for peace. Dave Holland, Conference of the birds. Baikida Carroll, Orange fish tears. Sam Rivers, The quest. Leo Smith, Divine love. Bobby Naughton, The haunt. Henry Threadgill, X-75 vol. 1.

Crazy list, I only have 26 and I didn't even know I had one of them.

Nice, next Tetragon and another Waldron-Lacy on Elemental.
