[IxENESxI]

Honestly I have not heard a saxophone that carries more feelings than this in a long time.I can easily say that it's the most interesting vibrato I've come across.Thank you so much.I already listen to this song 5 times in a row...

Which album is this on?

[tzavel14]

how can those 7 jerks pressed dislike... this is more than music is spiritual awarning... it's like the starting of the verry best story....

[opinioninflicting]

Looking up "bathos" on Wikipedia you also see "mock-heroic," which is a pretty good encapsulation of a cosmic-blues struggle. And a mystical struggle--purity of soul vs. a demeaning and pitiful reality.

[lubdu34]

This is astonishing-thankyou!

[Poochinnie]

the double bassist is henry Grimes

[preachingsaxplayer]

God Knows all about It,,,,,,,

[yousukekt66]

Great sound and voice is played

[nondor13]

bathos: so sad it's funny.

[ipastanaga88]

@nondor13 What's bathos? Is it like pathos?

And who's the passist? 

[nondor13]

@ipastanaga88

there's differing definitions of "bathos" but in my use I mean to say that it is so sad it's almost funny.

[LGLG69]

Albert's style of jazz is very unique. I can't say I like it a lot but some of it is cool with me.

[george4mon]

the sax playing is horrible

[praxiteleanhermes]

the hydra mag

[dajohnthomas69]

Adurg1: It is a compliment, but I always try to avoid the obvious

[electricmongoloid]

Ayler's music still helps fighting the stupidity surrounding us each day a bit more, and that's probably his best legacy.

Down to mainstream audiences of brainwashed followers.

Viva la Free Music !!!

[Vitruvian42]

He was a truly amazing musician, to be sure. I wish I could find a style as unique as his that worked. I have to admit, though; I don't really think I fully understand the way he played.

[MrBatty132]

albert ayler was one of the few musicians who taught me that music doest have to follow certain rules you don't need like sheet music or scales ect. he taught me that music comes from the soul you can't be taught how you want to play, which changed my outlook on how i approach my instrument a truely life changing figure i can finally laugh at patronizing music teachers and class mates at school who may know music theory but not the real shit like albert, god rest your soul man.

[poetictube]

Very nice.

But to clarify: Albert ayler DID know music theory.

It is the difference between music as an intellectual exercise versus music as a way for a man to bare his inner soul to the world.

Albert Ayler belonged to the latter camp obviously.

[folopo2]

hail to the masters!

[ADURG1]

amen. wow.

[echoftw]

@MrBatty132 i have to agree with you, but trust me Ayler knew his scales and theory. They are integral parts of becoming a strong player. The ability to transcend and innovate on your instrument is only going to come after achieving a high proficiency. Theory, scales, etc will always have their place, how you wish to use them (or not use them) in your playing is what makes the artist.

[dajohnthomas69]

very intriguing music...but I like it.

[ADURG1]

i thought intriguing was GOOD...

[dajohnthomas69]

Adurg1: it is a compliment, but I always try to avoid the obvious

[nutROn77]

imbued with the Holy Ghost

[rhodesjf]

love albert.....

[whirling2000]

Happy Birthday, Albert Ayler. You were amazing and died very young. I'm sure you're in a great place right now. God bless.

[1S15FReud]

You are the AbsolutE

[jontti91]

This is very beautiful song presented by Albert Ayler ;)

[Djangoblackbird]

Is that Gary Peacock on bass?

[opinioninflicting]

No, not on this one. I believe this is with a European group.

[francossavella]

It was recorded in the states the same day as Spirits, just after he returned from europe in 1964. This is from a record called Goin' Home tha features pianist Call Cobbs, bassist Henry Grimes and drummer Sonny Murray.

Peace, Fran.

[heyhuhuhey]

@opinioninflicting I think Henry Grimes is the bassist here

[Leonheartilly]

HAHAHA PEACOCK

[impulsobytheshades]

@Djangoblackbird is henry grimes on bass

[greyreverend]

@Djangoblackbird

It's actually Henry Grimes on bass! Cal Cobbs on piano. This album is pure dirge and beauty

[hatch96]

@Djangoblackbird It is Henry Grimes on bass, Call Cobbs on piano and Sunny Murray on drums.

[raittis]

perfect.

[eet73]

This gives me goosebumps.

[phantom5691]

me too...

[BRuggs666]

so lovely and sad. perfect in every way.

[BoboBerlinsky]

....and heavenly chords from the piano.

[erhaunzler]

and the bass tries so much to be a nice companion in this very sad minute

[surbvtr]

"but jesus"

ta yeule.

[vittisuper]

noiosa

[BuckshotLaFunke]

Great. And such a wonderful bass player, too!

[mick1316591]

Wow! Albert Ayler is so brilliant. I really need to hear more of his music

[IzzyIsou]

Beautiful!

[stavrogin5]

grazie

[SlikkTim]

Talk about expressivity...

[u89worlds]

glory hallelujah

[woodencardboard]

This is like a depressed drunk's theme music. That's not meant to be degrading; Ayler and his band paint a wonderful picture here.

[nondor13]

Yeah; a tone that is both literally and figuratively so saturnine and maudlin it approaches the bathetic.

[tehmode]

Agree totally

[GiggyStardust]

Is this intended as a complement?

[GreggaryPeccary]

That sentence was complete bullshit. At least look up the words you're using in the wrong context

[sarahxxme]

that doesn't mean anything, dumbass

[arthurspooner60]

how pretentious.

[nondor13]

wrong again.

[arthurspooner60]

again? aww man.

[bimwopbarn]

@nondor13 damn dude u used 3 words i dont understand in a row, which means i have no idea what you said

[bimwopbarn]

@nondor13 just looked up all those words, ur pretty spot on. except i didnt find it bathetic i think its pretty genuine

[gobotzoo]

Amazing. Spellbinding. Words fail

[Gongfutube]

Man, that is beautiful.
