Architecture In Motion - Ornette Coleman

Brilliant!!! Ornette has had so much crap directed at him from the mainstream jazz community and jazz education community...and yet he remains true to his vision, to the sounds in his head!
What has Wynton created to match this???

You are misinformed. I don't know of any publication or school that doesn't give Ornette proper respect.

And what the f**k does Wynton have to do with this? Wynton bashers would be a lot more convincing in their argument if they didn't mention him 100 times a day, often when it's completely irrelevent.

Now , now...aren't we a happy person filled with negativity today. BTW, when did you become so omni-present that you know what is written in every publication and what goes on in all institutions of higher learning. Maybe for you the experience you describe is valid...but surely your experience is not everyone's.
Ornette has been bashed in print as well at some institutions of higher learning.
As far your comment about..."the nameless one"...the fire he draws is of his own making!

Well actually, I am in school for jazz performance and my professors give Ornette mad props. I love most of his stuff. Although I would certainly say it's an acquired taste. Stop arguing and just listen! If you don't like what someone is doing then just move on. That's what i say...

Zappa once said that writing about music is like dancing about architecture. Leave it to Ornette to fill that gap!

epistrophy68 Zappa was a genius, nice quote.

Brilliant...thanks for sharing it.

Is this performance available on DVD for purchase?
