Audio: "The Blessing"
Hi folks, just for the heck of it, here's a live track from a pianoless trio gig I did last week with bassist Adam Gay and drummer Bryan Bowman at Kaleidoscope in SF. It's the classic Ornette tune "The Blessing"--listening back, we basically stayed true to the form, while not really playing the changes per se (wouldn't have been very harmolodic if we had). It's also the first time I've played my cornet in years (it's an old British Besson), which immediately put me into a different sound/idea zone, somehow.Enjoy (hopefully)!
- "The Blessing" (Coleman) Adam Gay, bass; Bryan Bowman, drums; Ian Carey, cornet; recorded 7/21/10.
