1970年代ジャズが好きならば,やはりカウェル,トリヴァーあたりが王道なのだけど,しばらく聴いていると飽きてくるのも事実で,なんだろうな.
下のStrata-Eastに関するインタビュー記事は実に面白くて,1970年頃のシーンをよく伝えているのではないか.確かに主流派のジャズ奏者からの流れにあることが分かる.だから,サム・リヴァースのロフトから興ったロフト・ジャズやオーネット・コールマンのArtist House周辺との関係性はあまり感じない.
ボクにとってのカウェルの代表作はECMの幻想組曲(この邦題は好きだなあ)なのだけど,多分,異色作なんだろうな.アイヒャーとの化学反応が美しく昇華した音が美しくも,1970年代の米ジャズの良さを伝える.
ということで,もう少しカウェルを聴こうかな.
