Bishop,Todd Little Played Little Bird / Music Of Ornette Cole CD

All About Jazz referred to Todd Bishop's Serge Gainsbourg tribute, "69 Annee Erotique," as "... beautiful decadence, brilliant and bright." Here, he features a set of rarely heard gems from Ornette Coleman's catalog on his latest in a series paying respect to some of the music world's more iconic and intriguing figures. In this free-spirited session, they cover compositions such as "Friends And Neighbors," "Comme Il Faut," "Country Town Blues," along with a beautifully unraveling, and unavoidable, take of the classic "Lonely Woman," drummer Bishop is joined by the brilliant Brazilian pianist Weber Iago, bassist Bill Athens, and a front line of Richard Cole and Tim Willcox, each playing multiple woodwinds except the alto saxophone.
