Скачать или смотреть Ornette Coleman Quartet with Geri Allen, November 12, 1994 Masonic Auditorium, San Francisco, CA

When Ornette formed a quartet with Geri Allen in 1994, it was the first time since Paul Bley, more than 30 years earlier, that Ornette had a pianist in his band. The late Geri Allen was a perfect complement to Ornette, as she could play in so many styles from outside to straight jazz. Ornette released two albums in 1995 titled Sound Museum, each of which included the same compositions, but in different versions. Most of the tunes on this tape are from those albums. As you can hear on this recording, she and Ornette had great chemistry. This is an audience recording by a taper I traded with whose name I no longer remember. The last two tracks are with Prime Time, from the same show. It sounds like Geri Allen joined that band on these tracks. Ornette did sets by both this quartet and Prime Time on this tour.
