The springboard in Ornette Coleman’s pursuit of freedom of expression as a soloist, Tomorrow Is The Question! is notable for its lack of piano, which the saxophone maverick chose to strike from the record in favor of a quartet composed of drummer Shelly Manne, trumpeter Don Cherry, and alternatingly Percy Heath and Red Mitchell on bass. Coleman’s belief was that removing piano and thus layers of harmonic structure, would allow the soloists to truly roam freely around the tune, pioneering new dimensions in sonic interplay.a

Contemporary Records Acoustic Sounds Series presents this 180-gram LP edition of Ornette Coleman’s second album Tomorrow Is The Question!. First released in 1959 and recorded by legendary engineer Roy DuNann, the album also features Don Cherry, Percy Heath, Shelly Manne and Red Mitchell. This new edition features ALL-ANALOG mastering from the original analog tapes by Bernie Grundman and is pressed at QRP and presented in a tip-on jacket.
