The Ancients

- Release Date: 5/16/2025

Product Notes
This double live LP features recordings from three nights of shows - May 12 and 13, 2023 at 2220 Arts & Archives in Los Angeles and May 15 at The Chapel in San Francisco. It's a breathtaking 90 minutes of three-way interaction, two ascended masters supporting a new but very promising disciple. Collier borrows from the AACM, from Pharoah Sanders, from Charles Gayle, and from bebop (I swear he quotes "Salt Peanuts"), while Parker makes his bass sound like a guembri, a donso ngoni, a guitar, and someone beating their palms against the inside of a wooden ship's hold, and Hooker's drumming is heavy foot and precise snare, plus some of the most amazing cymbal washes you'll ever hear. This is "free jazz" as ancestral lore being passed down live in the moment. Forty years from now, Isaiah Collier will be teaching it to musicians in their twenties who heard these recordings and sought him out." -Phil Freeman, Stereogum
