ORNETTE COLEMAN - LONELY WOMAN

("The Shape Of Jazz To Come", Atlantic, 1959)

1959 : what for a great jazz year ! John Coltrane's Giant Steps, Miles Davis Kind of Blue, and this essential masterpiece of free and modern jazz "The Shape Of Jazz To Come".
Ornette Coleman, more than 50 album as leader, an extraordinary alto saxophonist, always in activity...
This tune disturbs me, too dark but such luminous, too sad and so beautiful !

Ornette Coleman : alto sax
Don Cherry : cornet
Charlie Haden : bass
Billy Higgins : drums
