Description

Saxophonist Chris Kelsey and pianist Lewis Porter interpret ten seldom-played compositions by the great Ornate Coleman. Fewer than 100 available. “Shaman-like, sharp-witted, and intentionally shambolic (in) a single package ... Chris Kelsey and Dr. Lewis Porter have created something truly remarkable with "Free." They balance erudition and abandon while satisfying a craving for intelligent music dusted with mirth and mayhem. This album perfectly feeds into expectations while simultaneously defying them. The title hints at a second volume, and that would certainly be welcome. If it comes to pass, I'm sure it'll be a doozy like this one." - Dan Bilawsky, All About Jazz

From Where the Hurt Is:

"Her head was turned to the right, her left cheek rested on the rocks, her eyes stared unfocused into the distance. Even in that condition, her face was remarkably pretty and peaceful-looking, which made her harder to look at, somehow. I felt like a party to her violation. Lying naked and broken in the middle of nowhere and being gaped at by a couple of strangers is about as undignified as it gets." — Burr, OK Police Chief Emmett Hardy, April 1965
