ORNETTE COLEMAN On the 10th of February 1958, fifty years ago, Ornette Coleman made his first three recordings for his first album The Music Of Ornette Coleman - Something Else !!! for Contemporary. Every jazz fan has a meaning about Ornette Coleman's music. A lot hate it, his 1960 Free Jazz recordings shocked most traditional, swing and even bop orientated listeners; but few heard new promissing harmonies and developments. For me a reason to get this Contemporary record and to play it. Is it a complete new style, virtually atonal. divorced from the convential concept of improvisation based on chord patterns? to quote Leonard Feather (1960). Is it music that will shock me, or bore me, or entertain me? .... well time for a test. Something Else !! Keep swinging Durium
