The avant garde/free jazz thread
Ornette Coleman is widely considered to have released the first avant garde album in 1959 titled The Shape of Jazz to Come. There certainly were jazz musicians in the past however who heavily influenced this style such as Thelonious Monk, Bud Powell, Charles Mingus, etc...
Here's a couple pieces from that first album by Ornette Coleman who is still performing these days at the age of 84. Playing with Coleman is Charlie Haden on Bass, Don Cherry on trumpet and Billy Higgins on drums. ( I just found out by the way, that Haden just died yesterday. He was one of the greats on bass! )
