Search - Ornette Quartet Coleman :: Live in Paris 1971

A rare Paris concert by the 1971 Ornette Coleman Quartet which presents Ornette with his celebrated quartet featuring Dewey Redman (with whom Coleman had first recorded in 1968), Charlie Haden (present on the classic 1958 Hillcrest Club sessions with Ornette, Don Cherry, Paul Bley and Billy Higgins and on many of Ornette's LPs recorded since that year) and Ed Blackwell (who first recorded with Ornette in 1960). The Ornette Coleman Quartet's Paris concert was part of the group's European tour that included performances in many countries. Some of these shows were privately recorded and later issued, like those in Belgrade on November 2, 1971, and Berlin on November 5, 1971. The exact date of the Paris concert remains unknown. Its only previous appearance on record was for a long unavailable bootleg LP. Jazz Row.
