spotted the pleb

yeah but do you find dogshit arousing

its the supreme jazz masterpiece of the 50's

I'd love to see you try to explain why

OP is dogshit

explain to us why you don't like it user

Too bad that's only your shitty opinion and it doesn't hold objective value, so yeah, fuck off op.

>listen to it expecting some amazing revolutionary and experimental jazz masterpiece like machine gun or black saint and the lady sinner
>realise I have no idea how to appreciate jazz unless it has lots of discordance and loud sounds
>get bored within 5 minutes

>realise I have no idea how to appreciate jazz unless it has lots of discordance and loud sounds
Don't worry. You just described 50% of Sup Forums. And then there's the 45% who can't appreciate jazz even if it does have discord and high energy.

Try jazz again in a few years

Eh I listen to a lot of jazz but yeah, I can't appreciate it beyond a very superficial level in 99% of the cases.
I'm thinking about picking up the piano though.

Try more like 90%

I prefer high energy jazz, just like emotive classical music, but I do enjoy cool jazz and other more subdued types of jazz.

Was this album actually "the shape of jazz to come"? Was it unique compared to other releases at the time?

I know next to nothing about jazz, I'm just curious.

50% (appreciates only fast angry jazz) + 45% (can't appreciate any jazz) = 95%

>Sup Forums claims to value "emotion" in music over everything else
>only recognizes the very narrow range of emotions of anger or sadness

Sorry, I was triggered, I didn't read it carefully enough.

free jazz is AIDS

>this is what Sup Forums means when they say that they listen to jazz

>thinking Shapes of Jazz to Come is Free Jazz

I actually just listened to this, I heard tank a while ago and was pumped........ then I heard the whole thing :(

This is literally mucore

These percentages are still pretty off. I'd say it's:

80% of Sup Forums has heard less than 5 jazz albums (the ones on the Sup Forums essentials chart
10% say they like jazz but only liked noisy chaotic stuff that reminds them of rock/metal
7% say they like jazz but only if it has A E S T H E T I C cover art (they don't even bother listening to the music)

So that leaves about 3% that actually listen to and like jazz

It was unique in that it features no chordal instruments (namely piano) so all of the chords were implied between the horns and bass which gave it a more harmonically sparse sound than people were used to in 1959. The title is purely the result of the album's Turkish producer putting pressure on the artist. Ornette wanted the title to be Focus On Sanity.

This is a top 20 all-time album and my favorite jazz record. OP is a mongoloid dangling some low quality bait.

>when the player sounds happy

That's not even what makes it unique. Gerry Mulligan was doing a Quartet with no chord instrument years before this Shape of Jazz to Come ever came out.

The unique part about it is the lack of defined chord progressions and/or chorus structure and form to most of the pieces.

It doesn't always matter who does it first, it matters who does it at the right time. There are also some strains of Free Jazz that are on that Lennie Tristino track from 1949

>There are also some strains of Free Jazz that are on that Lennie Tristino track from 1949

Thats quite the stretch and you know it.

Not really, the track is pretty free. Strains in terms of a freer melody. But if you wanna go back futher free melodies have existed forever.

I agree 100% but the record was still pretty unique when it was released, just not really for the reason that you mentioned.

It's not. Tristano recorded two pieces in 1949 that featured improvisation with no defined chord changes. Really pretty much the same approach as on SoJtC but less emphasis on blues.

yeah so it's freer melodies, plus the instruments all kinda play their own things. It's very loose

Oh my fucking god, come on it's the fucking starter-pack for Free Jazz. You cannot be serious.
