    The opportunity to possess--in one convenient package--every recording 

    Ornette Coleman made for Atlantic is an opportunity most fans of modern 

    jazz would be hard pressed to turn down. (It must be noted, however, 

    that many jazz fans would have a very easy time turning down anything 

    Ornette recorded, thank you very much). But for Coleman fans, this 

    collection is an embarrassment of riches. Arranged chronologically by 

    recording date, the set collects music from 1959 to 1961, the period 

    many consider Ornette's most vital. Included are sessions from Free 

    Jazz, Ornette!, The Shape of Jazz to Come, Twins, The Art of the 

    Improvisers, Change of the Century, To Whom Who Keeps a Record, and 

    This Is Our Music. As a bonus, producers have also included a handful 

    of previously unreleased tracks. Packaged with gorgeous photos, 

    terrific liner notes from Robert Palmer, as well as copious discographic 

    information, Beauty is a terrific package. As for the music, the 

    recordings are clean, with excellent stereo separation (usually 

    featuring Ornette in one channel and pocket trumpeter Don Cherry in 

    another). But what really sets this collection apart is how clearly the 

    spirit of the music is visible. Beauty bristles with that coiled, edge-

    of-the-chair excitement that Ornette could so easily summon, capture, 

    and manipulate. And while Coleman's horn playing here is genuinely 

    pulse-quickening and vital, what also emerges from this set is the 

    strength of his band. While Ornette was tensed and ready to pounce, the 

    more esoteric Cherry was able to float and drift with the currents of 

    music's emotion. Behind them, bassist Charlie Haden and drummer Ed 

    Blackwell could roar like an open-throttle race car or purr like an 

    idling sedan. But no matter what speed, this is music that gives the 

    listener the impression it is going somewhere. And, of course, for 

    Ornette Coleman, the destination isn't the point, it's the journey.





    * WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE MAJOR FUCK UP, THIS IS A PROPER RIP, ENJOY!
