This album, Interstellar Space, is a duet album with the powerhouse that was drummer Rashied Ali.</p> <p>Recorded just five months before his death in 1967, this album was not released until 1974. It’s a real fire-spitter of a jazz record. His last masterpiece… Get it!</p> <p>This is an original US pressing from 1974 out on Impulse Records.</p> <p><a href="spotify:album:4t43Wkg1efBwey0Y5GPyEy"><img align="left" height="25" src="http://matteolsson.se/upload/news/2011/Spotify_original.png" width="25"/>John Coltrane – Interstellar Space</a></p> </blockquote>http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/17705721227http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/17705721227Thu, 16 Feb 2012 04:48:22 -0500 About a year ago, the Israeli saxophonist Albert Beger joined forces with legendery drummer Hamid...http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/16640824709http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/16640824709Sat, 28 Jan 2012 12:00:01 -0500albert begerhamid drakejazzfree jazzexperimentalimprovised musicthrill jockey We&#8217;re super excited about this; In April 1st, we&#8217;ll release a new recording by Israeli...http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/16639732630http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/16639732630Sat, 28 Jan 2012 11:37:00 -0500Albert BegerGerry Hemingwayimprov<iframe src="https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F15938470&liking=false&sharing=false&origin=tumblr" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" class="soundcloud_audio_player" width="500" height="116"></iframe><br/><br/><p>We’re blown away here.</p> <p>And there’s another piece by these guys.</p>http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/16637629485http://outnow.tumblr.com/post/16637629485Sat, 28 Jan 2012 10:51:00 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ly5lyuYHdg1r3ca9do1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Yair: <br/>I played this through and through today, this amazing piece by <strong>Sonny Sharock</strong>, with his wife Linda doing the vocals.
