Sound is the debut album by free jazz saxophonist Roscoe Mitchell, recorded in 1966 and released on the Delmark label. It features performances by Mitchell, Lester Bowie, Malachi Favors, Maurice McIntyre, Lester Lashley and Alvin Fielder. ... Wadada Leo Smith commented: "It's no accident that Roscoe called that important piece of his Sound. Sound - not pitch - that's the difference." According to Mitchell, "[t]he musicians are free to make any sound they think will do, any sound that they hear at a particular time. That could be like somebody who felt like stomping on the floor... well, he would stomp on the floor..." - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLq2jx8oSbE&list=RDRLq2jx8oSbE&start_radio=1 #RoscoeMitchell #LesterBowie #MalachiFavors #ArtEnsembleofChicago #FreeJazz #Delmark #Music #Jazz #AlvinFielder #AACM

Levels and Degrees of Light is the debut album by Muhal Richard Abrams which was released on the Delmark label in 1968 and features performances of three of Abrams' compositions by Abrams, Anthony Braxton, Leroy Jenkins, Charles Clark, Gordon Emmanuel, Maurice McIntyre, Thurman Barker and Leonard Jones with vocals by Penelope Taylor and a poetry recitation by David Moore. The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars stating "Levels and Degrees of Light would be a slightly difficult record to place in a blindfold test. It is certainly not untypical of the Chicago experimentation of the period, except it seems much less chaotic, much more responsive to European tradition" - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJQhyPpfgbk&list=OLAK5uy_mdvi-ywieFixdd1ZksyDHohn8Y6XWEZ6c&index=1 #MuhalRichardAbrams #AACM #Jazz #FreeJazz #Delmark #AnthonyBraxton #Music #LeroyJenkins
