Art Ensemble of Chicago: A Jackson In Your House/ Message To Our Folks/ Reese And The Smooth Ones (CD: Charly, 2 CDs)
The Art Ensemble Of Chicago have been a major influence in the jazz world since the group's inception in the late 60's and through the recordings made in the ensuing years.

The three original albums reissued on this 2CD set are considered as being among their best. They were recorded for French label BYG in 1969 in Paris, where the group were living at the time. This deluxe set includes a photo-laden booklet with informative notes.

'A Jackson In Your House', 'Message To Our Folks' and 'Reese And The Smooth Ones' all showcase the musicians' incredible energy and extraordinary eclectism, ranging from their off-the-wall delivery of the poem 'Ericka' to the bebop sounds of 'Dexterity' and the storming 'A Brain For The Seine'.

Art Ensemble Of Chicago: We Are On The Edge - A 50th Anniversary Celebration (CD: PI Recordings, 2 CDs)Art Ensemble Of Chicago: We Are On The Edge - A 50th Anniversary Celebration (CD: PI Recordings, 2 CDs)
Comprised of two discs: a meticulous studio session and the capture of a rousing live set at Edgefest in Ann Arbor, MI, 'We are on the Edge: A 50th Anniversary Celebration' is exactly that, a commemoration of a half-century of magical music making.

The greatness of The Art Ensemble of Chicago has always been the shared commitment of it's original members - Roscoe Mitchell, Lester Bowie, Joseph Jarman, Malachi Favors, and Famoudou Don Moye - to the total realm of African diasporic music: what they have long-termed Great Black Music - Ancient to the Future. Also important are the group's disparate musical and artistic personalities, comprised of jazz, advanced compositional techniques, theatrical performance, poetry, Pan-African percussion, all tied together with improvisational flair and the exploration of pure sound.
