Yes about 1972, Escalator Over the Hill was recorded between 1968–1971.
Of course, I’ve not heard every jazz album, but this album stands head and shoulders above any jazz album I have heard. Anything bearing the two words “Carla” and “Bley” is bound to be interesting and worth a listen, but Escalator is her masterpiece.
Yes Miles Davis’s Bitches Brew is very good album, but Escalator takes Jazz to another level and off in to places jazz had never aspired to before and possibly never will again.
The music is fantastic, the libretto magnificent, the cast splendid and the musicianship is as good as it gets if not better. Have a look at WikiPedia for full details,
If you haven’t heard Escalator then you really must, the penalty for not so doing is you risk life without hearing the pinnacle of modern jazz.
Just for any avoidance of doubt, I like this album.
