One of the best moments of my life, playing with my mentor and colleague Bill Dixon, in a music which was both deep and spontaneous; I hear it now, 54 years later, and it seems only like yesterday.

I have always loved this work of yours with Bill Dixon I remember the happiness when I managed to buy these two volumes. The sound of your saxophone is simply beautiful and loaded with tension. Thanks Steve Horenstein for giving us these emotions.

brooding, anguished, outraged, bereft...

Vastly overrated! Pointless at best!

GeoCoppens You mean youtube commentary? Trolling?

[@GeoCoppens]

@@pristinerecords This is my judgment about the musician Bill Dixon! You can read, can't you?

[@obscurer1898]

​@@GeoCoppens Why do you think it's overrated? Why do you think its pointless? What do you think the point should be? Why do you think music needs to have a point or not?

@@obscurer1898 Bill Dixon was a jazz teacher and performer at Bennington, NY. He made his students and followers believe he was a genius. Also as a painter. His music was below par. The best he did was a good album with tenor saxophonist Archie Shepp in 1962 for Savoy. After that he turned out poor music. And poor music is pointless!
