Albert Ayler
Author James Wylie talks to Julian Joseph about one of the giants of free jazz, tenor saxophonist and band leader Albert Ayler. Nicknamed "Little Bird" because of his early tone, which was similar to that of Charlie Parker , Ayler started on the R&B circuit and later collaborated with multi-instrumentalist Don Cherry. Ayier's compositions take in Irish jigs and marches, while John Coltrane 's music most definitely takes on Albert Ayler overtones.
