I think after Miles had gone to retire for 5 or 6 years, I began to be increasingly interested in Ornette Coleman´s PrimeTime. 

Sure I had heard the "Free Jazz" with the Double Quartet at older friends when I was less than 14, and loved it, but like Miles, who played other music than "Nefertiti" or "All Blues" when I heard him, the same was with Ornette Coleman. But it was great, so much rhythm. 

This album seems to be much later than what I had heard in the 70´s since it sounds much more "polished" but very very fine. And there is one ballad on which Ornette plays some incredible fine trumpet. Up into the highest register, and maybe if Miles would have lived longer and heard that, he would have changed his opinion that Ornette can´t play trumpet. 

Well, I like his violin playing also very much, but it seems he does not play violin on that record. 

My younger son loves "Opening at Caravan of Dreams" for it´s "Punk Rock Sound", and me too, I love especially "dark punk" I mean the style, the fashion and sure, the music, so there we have somethin in common......

Maz Roach Quartet, The Loadstar (Horo)

The Six, The View from Jazzbo's Head (Bethlehem)

I´ve never heard the "Loadstar". Can you recommend it. 

I saw Max Roach around 1978, and have heard it´s around that time it was made, is it a good record ?

It’s a great record Gheorghe. Highly recommended. The band with Harper, Bridgewater and Workman captured live in a very powerful performance.

Charles Gayle / William Parker / Milford Graves - WEBO 3 LP set. Stunning. Milford was a beast.

He certainly was. Saw him quite a number of times over the years (as well as William & to a lesser extent, Gayle).

Must have been a great experience Clifford. I’m jealous. 

After four sides of this trio I needed a small cool down before old years dinner:
