Mr. Gale studied trumpet with Kenny Dorham... his most noteable collaborations are with the Sun Ra Arkestra (Lanquidity), with Cecil Taylor (Unit Structures), Larry Young (Of love and peace), Elvin Jones, William Parker among others... he even played gigs back then w/John Coltrane at the Half Note (unfortunatly undocumented)... and cut two mythical albums for Blue Note in the 70's with his Ghetto Music. he's finally back on wax, after around 25 years ?! yes ! remember that word hot music used by New Orleans' Creole in the early 1900's ?! well, this is a burning live set who follow that tradition/roots..."ep
