  • Description

    This 1998 album by pianist Paul Bley is released here as a 180g audiophile LP for the first time. It wholly dedicated to the music of Ornette Coleman, with whom Paul was the major participant of that exciting musical experimentation some 60 years ago.

    "An intriguing and most stimulating date that does full justice to the writing of Ornette while showcasing the vitality and virtuosity of the creative Paul Bley in full flow with two top notch companions with him all the way." - Mark Gardner

    "Anyone who has ever enjoyed the pianist should seek out Notes on Ornette. Bley still enjoys throwing seemingly unrelated bits of improvised melody together, but here he often goes to the other extreme, spinning out lines that seem endless in which a few simple ideas continually transmogrify." - Duck Baker, JazzTimes

    Paul Bley: piano
    Jay Anderson: bass
    Jeff Hirshfields: drums
    Recorded September 1997
