There is so much to love about Ornette Coleman, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. The Shape of Jazz to Come isn’t so much a record, as a great effort at dragging you into another world. Ornette Coleman was a flawless and timeless record. Not surprising from Ornette Coleman and The Shape of Jazz to Come together. Another great offering from Ornette Coleman.
Eventually presents the astounding mix of instruments on The Shape of Jazz to Come. Other tracks are good but your best bet is to stick with Peace. Although Focus On Sanity is very melodic it is far from sad. Congeniality is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. Chronology is a good listen every once in a while.
