He sure shook things up, didn't he? I bought this album when it first came out and I was a young teenager and still own it and still find it fascinating although I can't say I've ever been a big fan of "free jazz." But Ornette and Dolphy are my favorites of that genre. I was a young guy writing poems back then and used to write a few while listening to this album, especially the song Lonely Woman.

By the way, congratulations on your new book and the fact that it's selling well. They do good work at Hanging Loose and have been for a long time.
