  • now you must develop a taste for free form jazz...

  • It's not about music. It's about freedom. Everyone does the thing that they want, nobody tells anyone what they must do, nobody hurts the other, maybe it sounds chaotic but they are a little society and they are happy and free. This music makes me feel like I'm watching a big city's life from a bus stop and the time runs faster.

  • @bobjazz11 SHUT DA MOUTH KENT!!!! HARRY POTTER IS DA MAYNE<<<

  • Free Form Jazz!

  • I have developed a taste for freeform Jazz.

  • It's Fred Williams on Bass & James Blood Ulmer on Guitar 1978's tour Search Youtube for...........................­......Fred Williams Bassist

  • I saw O. Coleman in SF.

    I might not have "enjoyed" it on a harmonic level, but intellectually, I appreciated what he was doing. Breaking the walls that have restricted music.

    The church used to forbid certain intervals. As far as I can tell, music has evolved over time dissonance has become more and more accepted, with the induction of triads to the Coltrane changes. What is considered harmonically acceptable is being pushed and stretched, less restricted. Free.

    Polymodal, microtonal, atonal.

  • you have to be open minded to be able to appreciate it, just like modern art or grindcore

  • free form jazz=blown away

  • they must have been high as fuck

  • and old people say dubstep is a bunch of noise
