"The Shape of Jazz to Come" (Atlantic SD-1317) was a watershed event in the genesis of avant-garde jazz. The record shattered traditional concepts of jazz harmony, disposing of both the piano player and the whole idea of concretely outlined chord changes. The complete LP is presented here along with four classic Coleman performances from the same period presented as a bonus.
