Don Ellis - How Time Passes - LP

Candid Records Vinyl Reissue

A fascinating blend of jazz and contemporary classical influences, How Time Passes is the 1960 debut album from envelope-pushing trumpeter and composer Don Ellis. Recorded with Jaki Byard, Ron Carter, and Charlie Persip, it marks the start of Ellis's exploration of "Third Stream" — the fusion of jazz and modern classical music — as he stretches the boundaries of bop with adventurous play on time, tempo, and meter. The album features extraordinary liner notes by Nat Hentoff and Gunther Schuller.
