Jazz music writ large is an art dedicated to radical freedom--to the notion that each measure has within it infinite potentiality for collective expression.

Free jazz and noise venues in New Orleans

Hey y’all,

I’m looking to get into seeing free jazz live and was wondering if anyone knew of any venues in New Orleans that schedule free jazz musicians. I know that this city has a huge jazz scene, but googling free jazz venues has not been helpful. Bonus points if anyone knows of anywhere I might be able to see noise music live here, would also love to check out that kind of thing.

Lost Trane Recording?

So I've heard about this Coltrane performance which I read about on David Liebman's blog in which the late Coltrane Quintet of Trane, Ali, Alice, Pharoah and Garrison performed as a quintet with the addition of Albert and Donald Ayler, J.C Moses and some other players, and apparently there was a recording made of it. I have had no luck in finding it unfortunately.

I reached out to Michelle Coltrane, The Coltrane Home and a Japanese Coltrane biographer regarding the recording. The biographer said no one knows where it is, Michelle said she would look into it (this was over a year ago) and the Coltrane Home had no knowledge of it at all.

Is there some way we can petition or search for this recording? Apparantly it was a rendition of my favourite things. To hear Ayler and Coltrane together would be a dream come true for I'm sure all of us.

I'll put a link to the blog post here: https://davidliebman.com/home/ed_articles/live-trane-never-before-never-after-seeing-coltrane-live-in-the-1960s/

And the poster: https://images.app.goo.gl/iQh73EL5rZyDCpkT6

They keep releasing recordings from his earlier period because they know they can make money off of it. Surely if we show enough demand for recordings of his late work they'll be more inclined to search/release them no?

Sven-Åke Johansson / Jan Jelinek

Recently got this one. Love Jelinek’s works and heard a lot about Johansson. His releases are on the Triat records. Big fan. Did’t even listen to this record before buying. And I didn’t regret it
