Description
4CD set presenting all existing known recordings made by Cecil Taylor for the short-lived Candid Records label, plus 6 bonus tracks. Produced by jazz critic Nat Hentoff between 1960 and 1961, these recordings are essential to the history of modern jazz.
Featured are such star sidemen as Archie Shepp, Clark Terry, Steve Lacy, Billy Higgins, and bassist Buell Neidlinger, who was the original leader on half of these sessions. A complete 1961 Taylor septet session produced by Creed Taylor, and the pianist's entire 1957 quartet performance at Newport are included as a bonus. Package includes a comprehensive 24-page booklet.
