Vinyl LP pressing. Removing the obligatory piano from his group for Tomorrow Is The Question! Gave an inkling of Ornette Coleman's need to break free from traditional jazz strictures. Though not nearly as wild as what was to follow, on Tomorrow Coleman and trumpeter Don Cherry make use of every opportunity to bust loose musically, as heard on "Giggin" and "Rejoicing," even as the rhythm section strives to keeps things anchored and grounded. There's a touch of blues bordering on funk on "Tears Inside" too, and "Endless" switches timeframes repeatedly. This is Ornette on the brink of major change - an engaging, instructive listen with unexpected twists.
