Two press reviews of this compilation
Recalls the creative ferment in the United Kingdom in the late 1960s, early 1970s and preserves hours of notable music that should be savored. Ken Waxman, Jazzword. The opening seven minutes of blistering improvisation [onTheAlternateMosaics] are the closest to ‘free jazz’ in any of Collier’s recordings … but the piano-bass duet which follows is also some of the most delicate music… And that’s Collier for you: a given mood will only last until the next shake of the kaleidoscope. Clifford Allen, Paris Transatlantic. Submitted by Graham Collier, the composer of this music.
