Art Ensemble of Chicago
Live part 1
BYG Records (Japan) 1975
YX-2040 (LP) Mono.
sleeve : EX-(some slightly wear on edge and corner, light dirts.)
media : EX/EX(some slightly noise.)
Released in 1975 as part of Toshiba Records’ BYG Jazz Collection 1500 series, this album marks the first live release by the Art Ensemble of Chicago. The recording captures a 1969 concert held in Paris, France, and although a double album featuring the same material was later issued in the U.S. and U.K. in 1980, this Japanese edition appears to be the earliest release of the performance. Recorded at the height of the group’s free jazz period, the album delivers a staggering 46 minutes of music brimming with organic, ritualistic improvisation infused with African earthiness and spiritual intensity. Absolutely stunning.
