Free Music Notes for Porto Novo
Free Music Review: Great free-jazz!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
Marion Brown is not a very well-known saxophonist. That's a shame (IMO). While he doesn't play 1000 notes a minute or play intricate notes on complicated chord extensions, he has a remarkably simple sound which is instantly recognizable; bluesy and soulful but also a bit melancholic and vulnerable, really unique!!! He is really one of the best examples of the free-jazz revolution that Ornette Coleman and other initiated, there was no place for individualists like him in the Hard-bop/mainstream jazz scene so he (like all the best free-jazz musicians) tried to create totally personal music, to be themselves in a market dominated by copycats and followers. This record features Marion with two great european musicians: bassist Marten AAltena and the EXPLOSIVE drummer Han Bennink. Together they improvise freely over Browns simple and beautiful melodies. This record is one of my favourites from the more obscure free-jazz 60's records and is definitely worth buying!!!
