Jeff, if you could shed some light on Ornette's harmelodic ideas, I would be most grateful. I remember an article he wrote for Downbeat that was supposed to explain it, but the article was just gibberish to me. Obviously the man can play the music, but I could not understand what he wrote in that article. John McIntyre Physics - Astronomy Dept Michigan State University
