Released as part of the Atlantic Jazz Anthology series in the early '70s, this hodgepodge of Ornette Coleman Quartet tracks were recorded for the label between 1959 and 1961. This short disc, originally released on LP, is now unnecessary, as Coleman's career has been well-documented and given the respect it deserves in the digital age. As a side note, it's interesting that out of four tracks, the compilers would include "Embraceable You," from the pen of George and Ira Gershwin, instead of an entire program of Coleman's compositions. ~Al Campbell
