Old people will remember this as a triple box set on Prestige in the 70s entitled “The Great Concert Of Cecil Taylor”. Was there really only one?
“The Cecil Taylor Unit's performance at Salle Pleyel in Paris on November 3, 1969, was a notable moment in avant-garde jazz. The concert showcased the group's intense, free jazz style.
The recording was transferred from the original tape reels at INA and restored and mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab.
Includes an extensive booklet with rare photographs from the show and liner notes by acclaimed jazz critic and author Phil Freeman.”
