New York Eye And Ear Control

Format: LP

Record Label: ESP-Disk'

Condition: New (this is a brand new copy, but I opened it along the seam to check the color of the vinyl - I put it in a plastic sleeve and separated the record to prevent seam splits during shipping)

Reissue - white vinyl - remastered - recorded in 1964 - originally released in 1966 Albert Ayler / Don Cherry / John Tchicai / Roswell Rudd / Gary Peacock / Sonny Murray Michael Snow is a Canadian national treasure, a true Renaissance man. He assembled a stellar group to improvise a sound track for his art film, titled Walking Woman (or New York Eye And Ear Control), featuring a silhouette that is rumored to have been inspired by Carla Bley. This is a very interesting set, music that was freely improvised and used as the soundtrack for the 34-minute short film New York Eye and Ear Control. Tenor saxophonist Albert Ayler leads the all-star sextet (which also includes trumpeter Don Cherry, altoist John Tchicai, trombonist Roswell Rudd, bassist Gary Peacock and drummer Sunny Murray) on two lengthy jams. The music is fiery but with enough colorful moments to hold one's interest throughout. (Scott Yanow)
