James Blood Ulmer/Switzerland 1981

Pete Causey of the Miles Davis Group and James Blood Ulmer of Ornette Coleman Prime Time, both of whom have their roots in the blues. A live show from the heyday of the monster guitarist with the biggest impact, approaching Jimi Hendrix, the god of Ulmer, is here! ! ! At the Zurich Jazz Festival in Switzerland on November 8, 1981, Ulmer’s heyday, tenor David Murray joined the trio of Ulmer, bassist Amin Ali, and drummer Cornell Rochester in an intense performance. The live performance has arrived as a complete recording of the highest quality stereo sound board with the label’s own careful mastering! ! ! The set list focuses on songs from 1980’s “Are You Glad to Be America” ​​and 1981’s “Free Lancing,” and features harmolodic guitar inherited from Ornette, but not Ornette’s. Avant-garde/free music that pursues a single-minded blackness (this is important), jazz, funk, and rock are all incorporated into this powerful black rock with tremendous guitar playing throughout. Also, Amin Ali, who was attracting more attention than Ulmer at the time, was the exact opposite of what Jaco Pastorius called punk jazz, but his funk bass was really cool. Cornell Rochester, one of the strongest drummers who goes wild on the drums, is definitely the best, and David Murray, the sharpest tenorman at the time, is in the midst of his sharpest and most amazing plays, giving an incredible live performance.
