James Blood Ulmer ‎– Free Lancing

The highest of Harmolodic High Priests, Blood Ulmer mines the frantic funk of 70’s Ornette Coleman—a tune like Night Lover could have fallen out of Ornette’s gig bag at the session for Captain Black—but works his own soul/blues vein good and hard until all that sifts through is pure Blood.
