1979 Japanese re-issue on Freedom/Trio's "Giants Of Jazz 1500" series of the 1972 live album. With insert.

condition (record/cover): NM / VG (7" spine split and light yellowing on top front)

Insert included. No obi.

Another copy of the Japanese Trio / Freedom edition of the 1965 Croydon concert's second volume - the 1965 trio documents do not linger in the racks, so we keep them coming whenever we can source clean copies. Ornette Coleman, David Izenzon and Charles Moffett: three voices, total freedom, complete accessibility - the paradox Ornette spent a career proving was no paradox at all, since melody was never the enemy of liberation, only the alibi people used to resist it. The melodies sing, the interplay crackles, the audience is audibly converted in real time, and the whole set breathes with the confidence of a band that had toured its language into complete fluency.

If the Golden Circle records opened the door for you - and they open it for almost everyone eventually - this is the same miraculous band months earlier, burning just as bright on the other side of the sea. Fresh copy, standing recommendation.
