OLD AND NEW DREAMS : Don Cherry , Dewey Redman , Charlie Haden , Ed Blackwell

"The second recording by Old and New Dreams was, like its first from three years earlier, named after the group. Trumpeter Don Cherry, tenor saxophonist Dewey Redman, bassist Charlie Haden, and drummer Ed Blackwell made for a mighty team, performing high-quality free bop in the tradition of the Ornette Coleman Quartet (of which they were all alumni). In addition to two of Ornette’s tunes (including a lengthy exploration of “Lonely Woman”), the musicians each contributed an original of their own. Stirring music in a setting that always brought out the best in each of these musicians. (AllMusic.com)"
