My Charles Mingus, Cecil Taylor, and Sun Ra journeys continue... From this distance, the Mingus 1962 Town Hall concert, supposedly a fiasco, sounds pretty damn solid to me... I don't mind the slight roughness around the edges... Mingus's solo piano album is beautiful... I've always dug his piano playing, and this album is the best example of it... Meanwhile, Cecil's all over the place on the 1973 Town Hall recording... what a treat... Indent continues to stun me... And to conclude our piano etude, Sun Ra's guiding piano on the title track of Other Planes of There is equally stunning, if not as extrovertly expressionist...
