Didn't care for it for a long time but once I started to get deeper into actual free jazz and came back to this it clicked in a big way

the bassist on this album is the father of the lady who sings the pinkerton b-side "I just threw out the love of my dreams"

Off-topic but Coleman and Pat Metheny have an album together called Song X and it's super fun. The other players are Jack DeJohnette, Charlie Haden and Denardo Coleman (son of Ornette)

Yeah, it took a while for me too but I do wonder how much my Science Fiction liaison has potentially improved this

I think it has for me. This feels a lot easier to grasp after that lol. I still need to check Coleman’s Free Jazz though, which I think does the full two band simultaneous madness approach. I suspect, therefore, more chaotic.

I gotta spend more time with this. Didn't do much for me on first 2 listens. :[

Oh, there's me thinking 'Science' may have surpassed this and we now have another contender in 'Ornette!' - what an absolute gem (no review, hence my appearance here)

yeah, it has the vibrant energy but is more structured rhythmically than the comparative looseness of this. Got them bop-like grooves
