Presented here are three seminal albums by the great Ornette Coleman (1930-2015): The Shape of Jazz to Come, featuring the debut of the splendid piano-less quartet with Don Cherry, Charlie Haden and Billy Higgins; Change of the Century, with the same personnel, and Something Else!!!!, which marked the debut recording by the Ornette Coleman Quintet, also showcasing Cherry and Higgins. THE SHAPE OF JAZZ TO COME ****(CROWN AWARD) PENGUIN GUIDE TO JAZZ: "Brash as the titles are, the music is surprisingly introspective and thoughtful. Most of the essential Coleman pieces are to be found here, though interestingly only one of them--'Lonely Woman'--has ever come close to repertory status." (Richard Cook & Brian Morton) *****ALL MUSIC: THE SHAPE OF JAZZ TO COME "Any understanding of jazz's avant-garde should begin here." (Steve Huey) *****ALL MUSIC: CHANGE OF THE CENTURY "An absolutely essential purchase and some of the most brilliant work of Coleman's career." (Steve Huey) ****ALL MUSIC: SOMETHING ELSE!!!!"This record swings from the rafters of the human heart with the most unusually gifted, emotional, and lyrical line since Bill Evans first hit the scene." (Thom Jurek)
