Von Freeman Live
at the Dakota
Von Freeman, 70-something,
remains a remarkable jazz artist. The sound, power, and ideas
that flow from his tenor are uniquely his. No one on the planet
will ever produce a copy. A legend based in Chicago, his recorded
output is sporadic and eclectic--different labels with different
players. Premonition
Recordsa Chicago label in love with the city's music has just
a released a CD that is a Von
Freeman "killer" with all the fire and soul that is
Freeman's calling card. A card from a jazz explorer. If you haven't
heard Von this is the text. If you have this is still the text.
Von Freeman and
Premonition Record's
Mike Friedman

new CD Live at the Dakota.
