The Shape of Jazz to Come [Listen] (javascript:void(0);)
1959 Atlantic
Here's where Coleman scrambles the rules of jazz into vibrant, revolutionary code. Driven by the idea that melodies need not be attached to fixed chords, Coleman creates beautiful, dejected themes ("Lonely Woman") and daredevil courses ("Congeniality") that shift shapes and colors constantly. A road map to the future. Still.
