Summary

In the final chapter Alyn Shipton considers the free jazz innovations of Ornette Coleman. Spiralling out from an interview with Coleman in Paris, he explores the wider universe of this music including 'Free Jazz', Prime Time and the later quartets. Later musical colleagues including Geri Allen, Wallace Roney and Charnett Moffett explore his continuing innovations and Howard Shore gives an insight into the making of the soundtrack to the movie Naked Lunch. Theorists George Russell and Gunther Schuller contribute their views on this maverick improviser.
