Ornette Coleman Sues Over Release of “New Vocabulary” AlbumComplaint alleges saxophonist did not authorize releaseBy JazzTimes A federal lawsuit has been filed on behalf of saxophonist
Ornette Coleman against Jordan McLean of the band Antibalas and Amir
Ziv. According to a press release issued by a publicity firm, “The
complaint alleges that McLean and Ziv recorded Coleman, then age 79, at
his home in 2009, and then recently released these recordings to the
public without his consent or knowledge as the album New Vocabulary on System Dialing Records.”
• An individual not recorded at the sessions is credited as having participated
The press release adds that an official Coleman album, recorded at a 2014 tribute concert that featured Sonny Rollins, Patti Smith, Flea, Savion Glover and many other artists (including a performance by Coleman himself), will be released this fall, his first official and authorized release since 2006's Sound Grammar. |
