ep1str0phy Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 This reminds me of that Ornette story about the Town Hall concert--the flyers were posted up saying "free jazz concert"... that is, free jazz concert--and not free jazz concert. The commonfolk were miffed. I enjoyed Bern's CD with Fred Hopkins (can't recall the name right now), and he's easily my favorite of the Ornette guitarists (Ulmer notwithstanding). I'm looking forward to hearing this one. Quote
