Repressed, "Pianist Paul Bley's 2nd album for ESP-Disk' features his 1965 superb trio including Steve Swallow (bass) and Barry Altschul (drums). Seven of the 10 tracks are written by Carla Bley (one each by Paul Bley, Annette Peacock and Ornette Coleman). Liner notes, photos and more. Digitally remastered from the original tapes." "This 1965 record should be in every collection... it is comparable in its democratic intensity and high melodic content to Chick Corea's 'Song Of Singing'." -- (from The Penguin Guide To Jazz)
Following his BARRAGE album, which featured Marshall Allen of the Sun Ra Arkestra, Trumpeter, Dewey Johnson and percussionist, Milford Graves, Paul Bley went back to the studio to record a very different
album with bassist, Steve Swallow and percussionist, Barry Altschul. He chose works by Carla Bley and Annette Peacock, and one of his own, titled Figfoot, for a series of languid reflections. - Bernard Stollman |
