Cecil Taylor & Tony Oxley
Ailanthus / Altissima: bilateral dimensions of 2 root songs

81 minutes of duet recordings with Tony Oxley, selected by the musicians from ten hours recorded during their two weeks at New York's Village Vanguard in 2008. In addition to marking Mr. Taylor's 80th year, this release honors Mr. Oxley's 70th birthday just before the performances occurred.

This deluxe collector's item has been issued in a very limited, numbered edition--475 copies worldwide--on vinyl LP only. A 2-disc gatefold set, the record features the cream of the duo's two runs at the Vanguard. An accompanying museum-grade folio includes exclusive original poetry by Cecil Taylor and paintings by Tony Oxley.
