FREE AMERICA - 15 Unpublished titles in a numbered, Limited Edition
Taken from the America/Musidisc catalogue & recorded primarily in Paris between 1969 & 1973, these 15 albums are now reissued for the first time on compact disc, remastered in 24-buts, as a numbered, limited edition.
Essential to the history of free jazz, these rare albums are sought after by collectors & music lovers the world over. They constitute not only a genuine cultural event but also precious testimony to an epoch of rupture & musical transition, the reflection of the profound social & political upheavals which American musicians came to express in Europe.
Each title has a richly illustrated booklet that contains the original sleeve-notes in both English & French as well as a new introduction to the series written by PHILIPPE CARLES (editor of JAZZ MAGAZINE & co-author of FREE JAZZ, BLACK POWER). Each CD also comes with a complete discography.
