The 1959 debut by alto saxophonist Ornette Coleman revolutionized the jazz world and quickly earned a reputation as one of the most important and controversial recordings of the era. Credited as a crucial work of early “free jazz,” the album featured a lineup of then up-and-coming jazz stars: trumpeter Don Cherry, pianist Walter Norris, bassist Don Payne, and drummer Billy Higgins.
Coleman would go on to become a titan of 20th Century music–the recipient of a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award and a Pulitzer Prize for music. Something Else!!! is simply an essential document of the jazz era–some of the most forward-leaning, progressive music ever put to tape.
This is exciting, courageous music that remains vital today. -Nat Hentoff, music critic
