Avant Garde / Free Jazz

Free jazz is not background music. It demands attention, rewards patience, and sounds like nothing else in recorded music. From Ornette Coleman's Atlantic sides to the ESP-Disk catalogue, from Albert Ayler to late Coltrane, the avant garde and free jazz tradition is one of the most radical and important in twentieth century music. At Car Boot Soul Records we stock a considered selection of avant garde and free jazz vinyl and CDs for listeners who want to go further. All professionally cleaned and graded. Browse below.
