Tracks list

Recorded live at UCLA in 1967, this archival release is seeing the light of day
repackaged and remastered nearly four decades after its initial performance.
Pieces of Eight was assembled only once for these recordings, with Don Ellis
offering up a two-disc set of frenzied but enjoyable performances. The
highlights are no doubt Ellis fascination with difficult rhythmic combinations
and manic fluctuations of odd time signatures and his band, surprisingly,
performs most of the material with great fluidity. Theres also a surprising
amount of microtonality from the players as well. Fans of Ellis work will no
doubt revel in these compositions and what is essentially a new recording from a
truly groundbreaking composer.
