Eddie Gale - Eddie Gale's Ghetto Music (4 Men With Beards 2013)

Having developed his skills amongst the cream of New York's hard bop players (jamming with John Coltrane and Jackie McLean), Eddie Gale helped ring in jazz's controversial new thing during the '60s and '70s on a series of influential releases. His inspired trumpet playing graced Cecil Taylor's Unit Structures, Larry Young's Of Peace And Love and a series of recordings and performances with Sun Ra's Arkestra. Now reissued on LP, Gale's Blue Note debut was originally released in 1968 and produced by Blue Note founder Francis Wolff. It's a blend of funky grooves, a gospel street choir of singers and late '60s free form freak-outs. Recommended for fans of Sun Ra & Brother Ah, Coltrane's Love Supreme, and Max Roach's It's Time.
