In the mid-‘60s golden age of free jazz, a group of sonic adventurers came together under the name of the New York Art Quartet, and though they didn't stick around long enough to burn their names into history to the same extent as peers like Ornette Coleman, or even the more "underground" stalwarts like Bill Dixon, the few artifacts they.

In New York Art Quartet si ascolta un free più riflessivo rispetto a quello sperimentato all’epoca anche se non sono rari i rimandi a Ornette Coleman ("No. 6") o ad Ayler (la fanfara dell’articolata "Rosmosis"). Assolutamente eloquenti in questo senso sono i primi tre pezzi del disco. Tra questi c'è anche il celebre "Black Dada Nihilismus" che divenne a suo tempo il manifesto di un’epoca, con la giovane voce di Amiri Baraka a interpretare l’alfiere della rivincita e della nuova filosofia afroamericana.

Roswell Rudd assembled the newly formed New York Quartet for an afternoon recording session at Bell Sound Studios in midtown Manhattan. They were joined by a small, youthful appearing individual, the poet Amiri Baraka. Their engineer was the late Art Crist, an accomplished pianist. I was introduced to Lewis Worrell, Amiri Baraka and John Tchicai. The group was short lived. I heard them again 40 years later, when they reassembled for a concert at the South Street Seaport in New York City, opening for Sonic Youth at the invitation of Thurston Moore. Press Quotes: "Cooking through contradiction, the New York Art Quartet cut some of the most powerful music in the free jazz underground. Clifford Allen, All About Jazz. The rep of this LP as a touchstone in any respectable library of free jazz remains ironclad.
