Don Cherry - Complete Communion - Vinyl LP
Vinyl LP
Originally released in 1966, Complete Communion was Don Cherry's first release on Blue Note Records. Each side of the original LP were suites, side-long compositions working with several themes. Critics have proposed this recording as an important innovation in the free jazz of the time, introducing "an alternative both to athematic improvising and to monothematic pieces."
Newly remastered for vinyl as part of an overall Blue Note 75th anniversary vinyl reissue campaign spearheaded by current Blue Note Records President, Don Was.
"Often the music sounds more like a conversation, as opposed to a solo with support, because the musicians make such intelligent use of space and dynamics, and wind up with a great deal of crackling, volatile interplay as a result. The leader remains recognizably himself, and his burnished tone is a nice contrast with Barbieri's fiery approach...As a whole, the project comes off remarkably well, establishing Cherry as an avant-garde force to be reckoned with in his own right." -Steve Huey, allmusic.com
