A, if not The, pioneer of freeform improv -- played his music, had tomatoes thrown at him, stayed with it -- played w/Jerry G -- haven't listened to Song X, the late 80s album he did w/Pat Matheney, in ages --
RIP Ornette Coleman -- free jazz forever bro

Saw him a few years ago at the Beacon with Sonny Rollins (80 bday concert) and Roy Haynes. They were like 249 years old. Worth getting the disc from Sonny's web site
RIP Ornette
