"Free jazz pioneer Ornette Coleman's [set] seemed to be the most eagerly awaited hour of all, with the curiosity seekers sticking around to enjoy a far out but often melodic journey with the soprano saxophonist and his drummer and bassist. An extra-added attraction was the reunion with two Orleanians, pianist Ellis Marsalis and clarinetist Alvin Batiste, who had played as young men with Coleman before his rise to prominence in 1960" (by Sandy Ingham, posted on 10/8/03).
