It's funny to think that when someone lent me an Albert Ayler album when I was about 16, it scared the pants off me! Now some 40yrs later, by the wonders of the internet, there are a good 6 cuts on the jukebox in one of my local pubs.... I'm talking down in deepest Wales! Thanks for the post.
I can think of no rational reason why I listened to this whole recording; I suppose I must be sometwhat in tune to the spiritual aspects of this music, after all.
Jazz at it's finest. A genius and an original voice. The fact that it's on the form of Green Dolphin Street only points out how great he was. For those who don't like it my advice is to not listen to it, and feed your soul some other way. But most creative improvisors consider Ayler to be one of the true originals. He spoke from depth of his soul.
this is terrific--and HE IS SINGING AND SWINGING IN HIS OWN UNIQUE STYLE---AN AMAZING INNOVATOR WHO DOLPHY,COLTRANE, AND LATER PEOPLE LIKE GEORGE ADAMS,HAMIETT BLUIET, AND JOHN HANDY WERE INFLUENCED BY..TRUE CREATIVITY ALA MONK AND A FEW OTHERS WHO DARED TO EXPERIMENT WITH THIS ATONAL CLUSTER OF SOUND.
Since ,Neils Orsted Pedersen decided to play Bass with Albert .The, rest Is History .True & Blue.

I love how subtly he can hint at the melody... its so nice
amidst the chaos there is still an undercurrent and he's clearly following along
It may sound like only randomness, but if you listen close Ayler is so with it

Your observations are splendid.
To me Ayler's tone and depth is first and foremost--a life-affirming creation.
Bronsted's comping is a marvelous contrast to Ayler's exploration of the infernal region.
There are no cliches or vapid phrases in Ayler's musical vocabulary.
Beautiful.

Yea, but can he play a Blues in B flat in tune, or is that asking too much.
PS I know he's dead, thank God

アルバート・アイラーが溺死体で見つかったのと
三島が割腹自決したのって同じ年月日なんですよね・・・
馬の嘶きのようなトランペットが印象的です。
