  • Description

    Deluxe packaging includes 12-page booklet with rare photos, memorabilia & updates, as well as the original liner notes.

    This release presents the complete original LP 'The World of Cecil Taylor' (Candid 9006), which was the first album recorded by Cecil Taylor for the legendary Candid label. The group consists of the Cecil Taylor Trio, with Buell Neidlinger on bass and Dennis Charles on drums, plus Archie Shepp on tenor sax joining them on two songs. An extra song and two alternate takes from the same sessions have been added as a bonus.

    "This is a wonderful document from early in Taylor's career, when he was midway between modernist approaches to standard material and his own radical experiments that would come to full fruition a few years hence. A classic recording that belongs in anyone's collection." - Brian Olewnick, All Music Guide

    Description

    "The World of Cecil Taylor" was the pianist's first LP for the short-lived Candid label. Cecil Taylor's work for the label took place during the first years of his career as a leader.At the time he taped The World of Cecil Taylor, he had only recorded four albums: Jazz Advance (1956), Looking Ahead! (1958), Hard Driving Jazz (1958) with John Coltrane, and Love for Sale (1959). Some of the numbers the pianist chose to release were improvised one-takes, while others were tried various times. The most notable case is that of "Air", for which 29 takes were needed in order to produce the master take approved by Taylor. 180g vinyl pressing with images by iconic photographer Francis Wolff.
