Recommend seller![[ASIN:B0000VD0M4 The Sidney Poitier DVD Collection ![]() Love Call $11.98 I believe the main lesson being taught by Ornette to the world has nothing to do with his "Harmolodic approach". The thing we learn from Coleman is to be ourselves. Here he uses Coltrane's rhythm section, but does not even remotely sound like anything but himself - starting a tune with a short riff, in unison with the tenor of Dewey Redman, then diving into an extended improvisation - playing with few limitations but with pefect control. The two versions of "Check out time" are an example to Coleman's truly free approach. The opening riff is basically identical, but where on the first version Coleman enters with bursting energy, on the second version the opening is followed by a Redman's long notes over a slowing rhythm. This gives the rest of the piece a whole different feel. On the Love Call versions Ornette plays trumpet and violin. While I prefer his alto playing, it is good to hear him explore the different sounds and possibilities. That's Ornette. His mind is always working, unbound by anything other than his own musical sensibilities. He knows his African American tradition - but is not limited by it or any other tradition. It is not easy for a musician to stray from a tradition - it is much easier to stay in the cozy confinements of an existing style/tradition. But the strong survive - as Coleman has. ![]() Why Do They Call It Love When They Mean Sex? [VHS] $19.95 Maybe not as sexy as announced, but very funny and very Almodovar - full of imagination, dark humor, and different. Once who like Spainish and specially Almodovar's movies (and there is a lot of them) will love it for sure! ![]() Logitech ClearChat Wireless USB Headset - Black $99.99 Plug it in and it works great. Not hard to figure out the controls. Sound is great and worked first time. Mute feature is handy when you need to talk with someone in the room. Only fault is a non-standard recharge plug. When will the industry ever get there act together and standardize all recharge plugs so we don't need many different recharger at our computer station. One usb should be able to recharge everything.
