<p>Ornette Coleman was a pioneering American jazz saxophonist, composer, and bandleader. Born in 1930 in Fort Worth, Texas, he revolutionized the jazz scene with his unique approach to improvisation and composition. Coleman's innovative playing style, characterized by his use of unconventional scales and harmonies, challenged traditional notions of jazz and paved the way for the free jazz movement. His albums like "The Shape of Jazz to Come" and "Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation" are considered classics of the genre. Throughout his career, Coleman received numerous accolades including a Pulitzer Prize for Music in 2007. His musical legacy continues to inspire generations of musicians.</p>

Though recorded in 1959, this album was not released until 1971. Featuring the classic Ornette Coleman quartet, this release is perhaps most notable for an early version of 'Free Jazz,' here called 'First Take,' the 40-minute version of which would make up his entire album of the same name from the following year. The four other cuts here smoke, too. Contains liner notes.
