Trane's Name is worth the price of admission

longislandhasher1

If burnin' Free Jazz is your bag - this is the joint ! Frank Lowe does things with the sax on Thulani that I didn't think were possible, but if late period Coltrane gives you goose bumps, you'll love "In Trane's Name." Also check out FL's album "The Flam."

Amazing

Before hearing this album my ventures into jazz were pretentious and superficial. This album changed everything with its amazing raw power. Though not always accesible its well worth the listen.

They Say All Music Guide

One of the later ESP blowouts, this CD reissue features the powerful tenor of Frank Lowe interacting with Joseph Jarman (heard here on alto and soprano), violinist Leroy Jenkins (operating under the pseudonym of “The Wizard” but quite recognizable), bassist William Parker and drummer Rashid Sinan. Two of the three originals (which include the 25-minute “In Trane’s Name”) are lengthy and wander a bit, but the intense music is well worth hearing by free-jazz collectors. – Scott Yanow
