Our Take

Ornette Coleman, the legendary jazz maestro, has once again graced us with his avant-garde genius in his album "This Is Our Music". And let me tell you, this is not your grandma's jazz music. Coleman's innovative approach to harmony and improvisation will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about the genre.

From the moment you press play, you are transported to a world where rules are meant to be broken and boundaries are non-existent. Coleman's saxophone playing is nothing short of mind-blowing, with each note soaring to dizzying heights and plunging to unexpected depths.

The tracks on this album are a rollercoaster of emotions, from the frenetic energy of "Blues Connotation" to the haunting beauty of "Beauty Is a Rare Thing". Coleman's bandmates, including Don Cherry on trumpet and Charlie Haden on bass, complement his vision perfectly, creating a sound that is truly unique and groundbreaking.

So, if you're tired of the same old jazz standards and need something to shake up your music library, look no further than Ornette Coleman's "This Is Our Music". This album is a testament to the power of innovation and creativity in music, and a must-listen for any true music aficionado.
