Alice
[About free-jazz] It felt like if you were to just walk out of this door and just see a new world, a new universe with so many opportunities in it. You know so many things to discover and so many vistas to look upon. It was so perfect for me. And I never felt locked in. I said what a freedom, and to have it without all of these boundaries and restrictions. Not that it was wild and undisciplined, because that was something we'd talk about. He said, [John Coltrane] 'If my music ever became such that I'm playing without thought or without concentration, I'm finished.' He said, 'I'd never want to play'."

We Free Kings
Hoje é dia de The Art of the Improvisers (Atlantic, 1961), aliada à uma bastante iluminada performance da kirkiana Free King's Suite -- Meeting On Termini's Corner / Three For The Festival / A Handful Of Fives pelo Vandermark 5, disponível no primeiro disco de Alchemia.
[Playing a standard tune is] like having to know the results of all the changes before you even play them, compacting them in your mind. So I did that, and once I had it all compacted in my head I just literally REMOVED IT ALL and just PLAYED. (Ornette Coleman)
If Louis Armstrong was the one who said "These are the rules," and Charlie Parker, was the one who said, "No, here are the new rules," Ornette Coleman is the one who says, "Why do we even need rules at all?" (Michael J. West, Ornette Coleman: The Last Jazz Radical.)
