Ayler, Albert

Something Different!!!

Unorthodox saxophonist Albert Ayler straddled different jazz streams during his brief career. After playing with Stanley Turrentine and Harold Budd in the late 1950s, a move to Sweden brought him into the limelight, fronting his own trio. Debut album Something Different!!!!!! comprised four dissonant songs delivered live with bassist Torbjorn and drummer Sune Spangberg, with a barely recognisable rendition of showtune "Ill Remember April," an off-kilter take of Sonny Rollins "The Stopper" (retitled "Rollins Tune") and a wobbly cut of Miles Davis "Tune Up," along with the original "Free." An exceptional musical experience!
