R.I.P. Dept. - Ornette Coleman passed away.




He was 85... saw him in 1971, with Billy Higgins... 't-was in Padua, Italy: what a concert... a younger me was blown away by the free-form energy coming from his horn...


I still have his autograph inside a disc...


He - who invented free-jazz - is now free forever, now.






R.I.P. Ornette... your iconic yellow plastic sax will shine forever, as well.


Hip!
