Charles Brackeen - Worshippers Come Nigh

CHARLES BRACKEEN QUARTET - Worshippers Come Nigh (Silkheart, 1987)

Charles Brackeen: tenor saxophone
Olu Dara: cornet
Fred Hopkins: bass
Andrew Cyrille: drums
Dennis González: pao de chuva

01-Worshippers Come Nigh
02-Bannar
03-Tinny Town
04-Ible
05-Cing Kong
06-Newsstand (Take 1)

Tenorman Charles Brackeen's third of three Silkheart CDs (recorded at the same session as Attainment) matches his powerful playing with cornetist Olu Dara, bassist Fred Hopkins, and drummer Andrew Cyrille. All of the Silkheart sets are worth picking up, but this one (due to its extra intensity and the five particularly strong Brackeen originals) gets a slight edge. Brackeen's passionate playing shows that free jazz was still very much alive (if underground) in the 1980s.(from AMG)

Charles Brackeen - Attainment

CHARLES BRACKEEN QUARTET - Attainment (Skilheart, 1987)

Charles Brackeen: tenor saxophone, voice
Olu Dara: cornet, voice, berimbau
Fred Hopkins: bass, toy drum, voice
Andrew Cyrille: drums, congas, voice 
Dennis González: pao de chuva, voice

01-Attainment
02-Prince of Night
03-New Stand
04-House of Gold
05-Yogan Love

Tenor saxophonist Charles Brackeen is in ways a throwback to the 1960s. He sometimes builds off of childlike folk themes (like Albert Ayler), and Ornette Coleman's method of constantly improvising new melodies is also an influence. However, Brackeen's intense sound has a soul of its own, and his playing on the four lengthy originals (with strong contributions by bassist Fred Hopkins, drumer Andrew Cyrille and the underrated cornetist Olu Dara) is quite original. Intense yet fulfilling music which was recorded the same day as its companion album, Worshippers Come Nigh.(from AMG)

Cecil Taylor Unit - Akisakila (1973)

Track list
1. Bulu Akisakila Kutala 1
2. Bulu Akisakila Kutala 2

Credits
Cecil Taylor - Piano
Jimmy Lyons -Alto saxophone
Andrew Cyrille - Drums

Recorded on 22 May 1973 at Koseinenkin Dai-Hall, Tokyo,

This is live recording of Cecil Taylor Trio in Tokyo, Japan on 22nd of May 1973. As this is the first
tour of Cecil Taylor to Japan, many funs of free jazz, avangard music, even professionals
of modern classic music went to listen with big expectation.

The live concert of this date consisted in two parts. The 1st was Trio performance that is recorded as this
"Akisakila". The 2nd was collaboration of Cecil's dance and voice performance.

"Akisakila" is one tune of 83 minutes length. Almost no change in tempo and dynamics in full 83 minutes.
Energy and speed is unbelievable. So far, I have listened to records of Cecil's live performance around
tens only. The longest one is "Nuits De La Fondation Maeght". But, in this performance, tempo, dynamics and
characteristics change in several times.

If somebody knows recorded Cecil's performances which have similar style of "Akisakila", pls. let me know.

Andrew Cyrille & Maono - Metamusician's Stomp(Black Saint : 1978)

Andrew Cyrille - drums
David S. Ware - tenor sax
Ted Daniel - trumpet
Nick DiGeronimo - bass

Track list:
A1. Metamusicians' Stomp
A2. My Ship
B1. 5-4-3-2
B2. Spiegelgasse 14 Reflections+Resturants The Park Flight

This is the 3rd album of Andrew Cyrille & Maono.

After quest of innovation of the previous two albums (Celebration, Junction), Andrew makes up an album of deligtfullness and straight and powerfull sound. Fruits from musical experiments in former two are used in rdered and skillful shapes, reducing their raw and experimental characteristics.

Therefore, among three albums of Andrew Cyrille & Maono, this is the most easy to listen and have potentiality for popularity which no-avangarde and free jazz fun would like.

But, on the other hand, would not be so attractive to ears of core free music funs. Anyway, I do not think it is bad that an artist has wider range of elements and different faces in his art.

Elouise Loftin - poetry
Donald Smith - piano
Romulus Franceschini - synthesizer
Tenor Saxophone - David S. Ware - tenor saxphone
Ted Daniel - trumpet

Tracklist
A1 Haitian Heritage Part I
A2 Haitian Heritage Part II
B1 Fate
B2 Gossip
B3 Non-Expectation Celebration

Here is the first record of Andrew Cyrille & Maono, named "Celebration".

In this album, as my the below comments, Andrew shows his earnest desire to pick up various kinds of musical aspects in his interests
at that time. These are prettey wider and of great variety, as compared to a energish and speedy drumer as a member of Cecil Tylor unit.

A1 Haitian Heritage Part I is free form session among hitian drum, trap drum. And vocal of Jeanne Lee and poet reading decorate it.
A2 Haitian Heritage Part II is dancing style tune of ethnical flavor.
B1 Fate is mysterious and sad ballad.
B2 Gossip is typical free jazz tune.
B3 Non-Expectation Celebration of flavor of electric music.

This album is starting point of Andrew as music creator from drumer of outstandingly tough and energish.

And this album is precious too as Donald Smith plays piano. As long as I know, he recorded his piano in just a few albums only.
