Free jazz is more complex than smooth jazz.

Massive Ed, Edd & Eddy vibes from this album

Ornett Coleman advocated a style of Jazz that is not bound the by cliche structures like 12 bar blues, I've got rhythm swing, Bebop etc. and this record represent "Freedom in music" which coined "Free Jazz". He said if you are a Jazz musician don't be afraid to break the rules and explore because that's what's gonna propel this music to new avenues and "shape the new Jazz to come. Don't aim to be smooth like other players otherwise you'll end up sucking a dummy and a copy-cat, otherwise you'll like chewing what had been chewed, chewed, and chewed and thrown out for others to eat...eating the chewed instead of cooking your own stuff!!!

The Shape of Jazz to Come fue el primer disco de Ornette Coleman que compré en un viaje a París en 1962. Uno de mis mejores amigos me lo dio a conocer en Fort Rabot meses antes. Y debo confesar que desde el primer momento no me costó adentrarme en su melodía. Es más, desde los primeros compases me enganchó. Durante semanas no pasaba un solo día que no lo escuchara como se escucha la voz de un profeta. Su título anunciaba lo que estaba por venir. Más de seis décadas después, en 2015, volví a escucharlo durante meses con la misma devoción, pillándome en ese trance cuando anunciaron su fallecimiento. A diario buscaba el reencuentro con aquel artífice del nuevo jazz abriendo estructuras clásicas, sin miedo ni complejos. Un gran músico amante de melodía y disonancias, ni más ni menos que lo que el siglo comportaba. Como escribiera Fred Kaplan: «La clave para comprender Ornette, es que era ante todo un melodista». Aunque parezca extraño, esa es la verdad de este músico rompedor. Como lo fueron Bach, Beethoven o Schönberg. Mi relación con The Shape of Jazz to Come viene de tan lejos… Fue el primer disco que escuché de Ornette Coleman y, con el paso del tiempo, a cada escucha añoro aquel momento y la frescura que me procuró. Guardo por él un cariño entrañable, incita al recogimiento, permite aliviar cuanto veneno tragué en el día y purificar el ánimo. Me pregunto al modo que lo hiciera Thoreau: «¿por qué el recogimiento tiene que asemejarse a la tristeza? Hay un tipo de tristeza fértil, que no evito, sino que incluso busco seriamente. Me resulta del todo gozosa. Ahuyenta la trivialidad en mi vida. Mi vida corre con una corriente más profunda… » (Diario, 17 de agosto de 1851). Algo de eso me ocurre con The Shape of Jazz y no me arrepiento por gozar de esta nostalgia.

I was working in a little used records store in Columbus, Ohio in about 2000. All of the musicians and their girl friends and local cats in the know would come in. I would spin unusual and cool things we would get in. I had the original vinyl spinning one day and a musician I don't remember gave me his 3 cents about this record. He layed down the history and importance of this recording. It changed everything. Miles Davis didn't think he had a career any more. This doesn't seem like it now, maybe, but this is groundbreaking. It is a little challenging at first but let it spin and don't overthink it. Ornette toured into the 2000's. I missed him in Phoenix. That was a show I regret not seeing.

PS. Columbus REJECTED Nirvana on their first tour which I am very proud of. The Jazz festival organizers there had a huge public argument about whether Kenny G. should be allowed to perform. He was REJECTED. When Seattle was chosen by the record companies to be the NEW THING, Columbus was a little butthurt and then they said F*ck It and still continue to do their own things. Columbus still has a very solid music scene. The weather is terrible and there is lots of heroin to shoot and jobs are hard to come by. Hurry and see your favorite bands before they O.D. Not a joke...Reality.

The shape of jazz for me to "come".

Listening to it now it doesn't seem as far off-grid as it did at the time. It inspired a whole school of thought taken up by Archie Shepp, John Tchicai, Roswell Rudd, Pharaoh Saunders, etc. It was one of the seminal albums, like Kind of Blue, Bitches Brew, and many others

Its smooth as hell to me

Freedom and joy forgotten secrets of music

This is hard, it’s meant to be. I’ve heard of how the band was formed, some of them had never played anything like that before, heard a bit of it on Coleman’s fairly brief performances, and went ‘can I play with you that has just blown my mind!’ Every time I hear it I’m just poleaxed. I never heard Coleman live. They say it was like being hit by an out-of-tune steamroller. The Gods don’t do this very often. To me this is still the most futuristic recording ever made in the jazz genre, it is exactly what it says on the label - shape of stuff to come. I wasn’t even born in 1959, it took some vision and technique to put this together in 1959. I’m not a Colemanist but I know when to say hats off, my man. This is a hell of a piece of art.

I arrived here through Michael Ondaatje`s books, thank God I did!

The shape of jazz to come es un álbum de free jazz, grabado y lanzado originalmente en 1959 por el saxofonista estadounidense Ornette Coleman. Fue uno de los primeros discos de vanguardia y en él ya se mostraban los elementos esenciales del free jazz. Se grabó con un cuarteto sin piano, y produjo un gran impacto, al contener estructuras armónicas muy poco reconocibles y utilizar la improvisación simultánea. En 2003, el álbum fue considerado en el puesto número 246 de la lista de los "500 discos más importantes de la historia", de la revista Rolling Stone. Chris Kelsey en su ensayo "Free Jazz: A Subjective History" lo considera uno de los 20 discos esenciales de la historia del jazz.

That amazing year…where every release tried to take openings, middles and endings to a new place and invented the studio LP almost by accident. Ornette was the most ‘hated’ musician in the world because he played LIKE THIS yet made it work. I still idolize this man yet increasingly I find people go ‘who?’ I’ve heard they even think Ornette was female because of the ‘e’ on the end! I’m sure Mr Coleman wouldn’t mind if folks thought he was female but really! People begged to join his band when they heard him play. All his life he had people begging to join what he was doing. Now they say ‘who?’

Congeniality is so happy

Reading comments and disagreements here, I am interested to understand and possibly enjoy this music. I enjoy melody, not senior's dance party stuff, but what I hear in Monk, Mingus, Coltrane, Davis and others. I understand them, mostly. I don't yet understand Coleman. I play this CD from time to time, to 'try it again'. But to read people arguing about definitions of this or that kind of music, or of music altogether, seems to miss the point. I believe that this music is complex, likely needs expertise and talent to play, and perhaps needs technical musical knowledge to understand. But understanding is just one way to approach anything, and it often depends upon our feeling that what we are experiencing belongs in one familiar category or another. But why do we feel a need to find boxes to put things in? Enjoyment can be an experience very different from understanding. And maybe that takes relaxing and hearing, including relaxing our expectations and attachments to this way or that way, and allowing ourselves to just be present, hearing the sounds. I'll continue to play this CD from time to time, to try it again.

You may have a point about the "technical knowledge" as I play the drums and have made some efforts to learn sax and clarinet. I don't think this is music you put on for a dinner party (or as background music for anything), you need to actively listen to it. Most people are "brainwashed" to need a steady beat, I think.
