Indeed George Russell's predictions were spot on, jazz would become much more free in the coming decade. So free in fact that free jazzers wouldn't have any use for Mr. Russell's groundbreaking discoveries (with free jazz the music can't be thought of has horizontal or vertical, most free jazz is aural miasma).
