Our Take
The World of Cecil Taylor is a whirlwind of avant-garde jazz that will leave you scratching your head in confusion and tapping your feet in excitement. Cecil Taylor, a piano virtuoso with a flair for the unconventional, takes you on a journey through a musical landscape that is as unpredictable as it is mesmerising. From the opening track, "Bulbs", Taylor showcases his technical prowess with lightning-fast runs and intricate melodies that defy traditional jazz conventions. Accompanied by a stellar ensemble of musicians, including the legendary Archie Shepp on saxophone, Taylor weaves a tapestry of sound that is both challenging and rewarding. Tracks like "Holiday En Masque" and "Wallering" showcase Taylor's knack for blending dissonance and melody, creating an atmosphere that is both chaotic and beautiful. The album is a testament to Taylor's fearless approach to music-making, pushing boundaries and challenging listeners to rethink their preconceptions of jazz. Overall, The World of Cecil Taylor is a challenging listen that may not be for everyone. But for those willing to take the plunge, it is a rewarding experience that will leave you wanting more. So grab a glass of wine, sit back, and let Cecil Taylor take you on a musical journey like no other.
