The only constantly circulated discs by the quartet with redman ,and Blackwell seem to be the good but otherwise very slick and manicured records on blue note “new york is now” and ‘love call” so its great to hear this again and a pristine rip too!!Perhaps at some point in time someone will see fit to share the scandalously neglected impulse records ‘crisis’ and ‘ornette at twelve’ which have been out of print for many years I recall having heard other live material by this group ,notably an lp boot released by French label musidisc in the early 70’s in very atrocious sound. and this is a sonically relatively superb documentation of what must have been a stunning group live. Whatever its provenance, ultimately it’s the music which matters. There seems a level of uncertainty about whether any of this set was recorded in 66 featuring izenzion and moffett, as opposed to haden and Blackwell. ![]() highly contended discographical provenence. Definitely a set that ought to be better known and circulated.magnificently recorded for what I believe was basically an un authorised release.(glmlr disagrees with me here, my source is an only dimly remembered discographical note in an insert to one of ornettes artist house lp’s.and since I don’t have my records with me at this moment ,I cant actually confirm that suspicion)
