Some words on this issue: WRIGHT, FRANK: “One For John” (BYG Actuel – Actuel 36) Original press. Frank Wright's ensembles tended to tear the roof off with this recording. Recorded in Paris, Studio Saravah on May 12th, 1969,the all-star line-up consisted out of Frank Wright (ts), Noah Howard (as), Bobby Few (p) and Muhammad Ali (d). Ayler-esque melodies quickly blast off to the stratosphere. Wright's gruff tenor contrasts nicely with Howard's sweeter tone, which is not really less intense, just less ferocious. Few's playing is nothing short of elegant even when the rest of the band is whipping up a storm and Ali loud percussive crash, urgent staccato rolls across his toms and his tribal rattle and shakes locks all the players together. The music is dense and speedy, frantically chaotic, coloring the space that destroys the listener’s perception of time, catapulting him into the void of free form. A rare combination of freedom and intensity with lyrical, spiritual beauty that's found on most late 1960s and ealy’70s Wright recordings. This record is a beast and indispensable in any free jazz and fire breathing musical collection.

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
