Bells captures a pivotal moment in the evolution of Albert Ayler's groundbreaking sound, recorded live at New York’s Town Hall in 1965. Fueled by Ayler's fiercely expressive saxophone and distinctive military-inspired melodies, this performance showcases the powerful group interplay and boundary-blurring improvisation that would shape the future of avant-garde jazz.
This 2017 ESP-Disk' release marks a special chapter in the album’s legacy, featuring—on its B-side for the first time—the legendary performance that once appeared in error on early pressings of "Spirits." Also notable as the debut recording of Charles Tyler, Bells stands as a thrilling, historic document for jazz enthusiasts and fans of Ayler’s singular artistry.
