Speak of the devil

In my last post I happened to mention legendary jazz composer and theorist George Russell. He died about 4 days later of complications from Alzheimer's. He was 86.


His music generally didn't tend towards grooviness, so I think this flies below the radar:


George Russell Sextet: "Event I" (Soul Note, 1980)

It's edited from the 1980 version of Electronic Sonata for Souls Loved by Nature, which, like a lot of great stuff on Soul Note, is available dirt cheap in electronic form.
