  Pickles and Preserves, by Marion Brown. Foreword.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Marion Brown was born and raised in Petersburg, Virginia, but spent most of her adult life in Burlington, North Carolina.
Brown's day (and that may have been relatively safe because home canners were then more experienced and careful—and people had built up an immunity to the bacteria and mold that old methods did not completely eradicate) are no longer considered safe or recommended today.
Brown was very thorough in her instructions for these old-fashioned methods, some of which were still in common use at midcentury, some of them were already archaic.

 1898:  Marion Brown
Brown pleaded ‘not guilty’ to the murder charge, and insisted that he was unprepared for his trial.
Brown also insisted that it would not be a fair and impartial trial, since the public was prejudiced and biased against him, and ready to find him guilty before the trial had even begun.
Brown claimed that "malicious and untrue statements have poisoned the public mind against him." Brown’s concern was a valid one; the court had a difficult time finding a jury because, from the reports that had been given, the majority had already decided that Brown was guilty.

Brown's solo here lilts on the branches of Cowell's arresting, nearly Debussian chromatic figures that extend harmonic ranges almost without end.
By the time the band gets to the title track, a free workout in a dizzying tempo, the listener is grounded enough in Brown's composed lyricism so as not to be surprised at all when the fury of the tempo is elongated by the temperance in tension the band creates.
This is a phenomenal album, a place where Marion Brown got to reveal early on why he was such a formidable force: He understood the inherent importance of musical traditions and he also understood how imperative it was to them and to jazz to extend them in a manner that left their roots clearly visible.

James Benjamin's periodic musings and rants -- primarily of a political nature, as well as jazz, poetry, haiku, Bokononism, and whatever else happens to be on my mind.
Some of his recordings are readily available and in print, and some (especially his early to mid 1970s recordings on Impulse!) are next to impossible to find.
Instead, Brown and crew create an impressionistic soundscape that for me evokes early childhood memories of summer afternoons in rural northeast Texas (not quite Georgia, but close enough).

Marion Brown's "Quartet" album, his debut recording as a leader for ESP-Disk, is finally getting its sonic due.
"Quartet" (although this issue titles it "Marion Brown") opens with a piece that is rather uncharacteristic of the New Thing movement, the breezy, laid back, and calypso-ish "Capricorn Moon".
This performance actually quite exceeds the rest of the album-- the theme utilizes tension in the theme, stating the theme in harmony and then breaking for sustains before turning over to schizophrenic solos by Brown and Shorter, both of whom shine brightly.

 The History of Jazz Music. Marion Brown: biography, discography, review, links
Atlanta-raised Alto saxophonist Marion Brown, who relocated to New York in 1965 and almost right away, still an unknown, played on John Coltrane's Ascension, rapidly became one of the most radical but also most romantic of the free improvisers.
His Quartet (1965), featuring two basses (Ronnie Boykins and Reggie Johnson), drums (Rashied Ali) and either trumpet (Alan Shorter) or tenor-saxophone (Bennie Maupin), was one of the most forceful free session of the age, the natural successor to Coltrane's masterpiece.
Why Not (1966) was also a transitional work, highlighted by Brown's skills as a composer of ballads and by the elegance of the quartet (pianist Stanley Cowell, Rashied Ali and bassist Norris "Sirone" Jones) in interpreting them (La Sorella, Fortunata, Homecoming).

"Alto saxophonist Marion Brown, a key member of the avant-garde jazz scene, first arrived in New York in 1965 where he landed his first session playing on John Coltrane's historic Ascension album.
By the end of that same year Brown had already recorded this self-titled debut as front man on ESP-Disk, featuring Alan Shorter on trumpet and Ronnie Boykins on bass.
Brown is one of the most talented (if lesser known) players of the '60s jazz avant-garde and this historical release secures his place as one of the major voices in jazz."
