Ornette Coleman - Rome, Music Inn 1975

[@catdaddy3302]

I have Ornette’s old turn table. He gave it to a mutual friend, Harriet Tyson PALMER (Bob’s wife). She was at my house one day admiring my extensive album collection and saw I had no turntable. Why? Because I was too broke to buy one. She gave me his. I was so happy I cried tears of joy. She went back to NY and had lunch with him and told him what she had done. She told him I was so happy I cried. Then he cried. Shows ya the kind of heart he had.

Ornette Coleman - alto saxophone, trumpet James "Blood" Ulmer - guitar Sirone - bass Billy Higgins - drums Great stuff, thanks for posting!

[@sunramusicchannelofficial3316]

The incredible Ornette Coleman. Having been a fan from the beginning long before I joined the Sun Ra Arkestra, Ornette's music still is vibrant and timeless. It's great to be able to see this and any other rare Avant Garde footage on KZbin. We need more film footage of the overseas concerts way back then (1961-1980's). Michael D. Anderson - Executive Director of The Sun Ra Music Archive / The Sun Ra KZbin Channel

[@AimeeNolte]

SUN RA MUSIC CHANNEL (OFFICIAL) Michael! Would you be willing to share a little bit of Ornette views about playing out of tune? Did he enjoy it? Was it interesting for him to be at odds in that way?

Wow, rare to see any footage of this short lived band, great to see the fantastic Sirone before he went with the Revolutionary Ensemble, bravo!

[@stevetintweiss]

Wowee. Sounds slightly speeded up.🎷 Fantastic and historical video document. Free avant-garde improv on Ornette’s tune. Billy Higgins drum solo is so melodic. He clearly plays the theme. st

[@davidenardoni988]

ricordo le due chitarre , innovazione assoluta . ho rimosso invece l'episodio antecedente che mi è stato ricordato da un amico incontrato dopo 35 anni . In pratica spintonammo il tizio all'ingresso del locale che rotolò per le scale ed entrammo senza pagare seguendo tutto il concerto . A questo punto pur non ricordando l'episodio truce sono disposto a fare ammenda e inviare un bonifico di 50 euro a titolo simbolico ad Ornette Coleman o a qualche discendente dello strepitoso Pepito Pignatelli lasciate IBAN , naturalmente con la prova che va alla persona giusta.

Miles Davis was correct about Ornette Coleman. At first I thought Miles was some what harsh but after listening to this I have to agree with everything Miles said.

[@MO-1888]

❤️😎

[@idealartistsf7956]

Ulmer had his own tunings...and thoughts on playing guitar. Like Miles said play like ypu dont know how to play.

[@greggeldart9558]

52 years ago I was 10 years old and had just discovered Ornette Coleman on the radio...It sounded to my ears like a pile of radios tuned to different stations...At the time I was also collaborating with my 5th grade class writing lyrics for Frank Zappa,so Coleman is why I had Greggerry Peccary put out a pile of radios tuned to different stations to defend himself against his acid crazed attackers....It worked, apparently, too good...They screwed themselves to death and Greggerry had no clue what had happened. BUT I Knew, because originally everyone was dancing and happy and Frank Zappa made it perfectly clear he was a white supremacist CONEHEAD...Who just happened to be able to write music, whilst stealing and bastardizing lyrics from kids.

[@morgzana1374]

[@gregarnold1696]

Been a fan of Coleman for years I can't pretend I don't fully understand the method but I feel it deeply and I think it would be fair to say it's jazz due to the instruments used but this is so far ahead of simple labels it's best to refer to it as music

[@bobbychun739]

does anyone know the song?

[@_Ramen-Vac_]

"Theme for a Symphony"...and then some "Love Call"? must have been a medley.

[@okkiejatikusuma4898]

Dancing in ur head

[@ejb7969]

The tune is "Theme FROM a Symphony". Dancing in Your Head was the title of the 1975 or 1976 album this came from.

[@saraondo2698]

Really? Blood plays his ass off. He's louder in the mix but he carries nice rythmns, voicings and dialog which Ornette plays off of. Sonny Shirock and Pete Cosey were good guesses.

James "Blood" Ulmer

[@prckrevofficialchannel1911]

There is something oddly great, comical and at the same time awful about the recording. This stupid tune he repeats is so burlesque and powerfull, and that out of tune loud mixed guitar sounds so off and this major minor clashes... I so love it

[@_Ramen-Vac_]

It's entitled "Theme for a Symphony".. then some of "Love Call" highly expressive.

[@erikheddergott5514]

That is TH Magic of Free Jazz.

[@ejb7969]

"Theme FROM a Symphony". The tune comes from the theme of one of the movements of his orchestral epic "Skies of America".

[@geraldjensen9399]

Sonny Sharrock?

Nop...James Blood Ulmer

[@GabZsapkaGuitar]

it's nice that deaf people can enjoy playing music together :)

[@scottplaysguitar]

I see you’ve played some Steve Vai solos. Steve Vai started out with Zappa in the 80’s. Frank Zappa got to where he did based on experimentation with various genres and styles, including jazz. His own guitar style incorporated a lot of free-jazz stuff; a continuation of what these guys were doing here. Without these guys, you wouldn’t be able to enjoy your shredding guitar. I’ll assume that was a joking comment, but there’s just some fun knowledge for ya to give you a sense of it all.

[@dcbeemon]

Oh. that was the song. I get it.

[@dcbeemon]

pretty cool transition.

[@dcbeemon]

This is what's so cool and beautiful about Ornette, it wasn't about the chops, it was about the song, and the guitar player understands that. And now he's starting to show his chops! Ha! Good restraint, man!

[@erikheddergott5514]

It IS James Blood Ulmer.

[@stevemarino5745]

It sounds repetitive and atonal. But if you pay attention, its musical and has a melody. Which may be between the notes. The band is both in sync and out of sync at the same time. It's beyond sync. Its in-the-moment-Zen. Jazz. Listening won't get you there, it will lead you away from it, and restrict it. If you feel it, you are it, you are Ornette Coleman and all those beautiful cats playing with him. This is the real church. Pure.
