Marion Brown headlines a group of avant-garders that includes Jeanne Lee, Anthony Braxton, Chick Corea, Andrew Cyrille, and Bennie Maupin in this 35-minute expanse of tactile improvisation from 1970. Reeds and percussion are heavily represented, though piano and voice push their way to the foreground in memorable turns of phrase. Those who would put on the Art Ensemble of Chicago as the soundtrack for a good time will find themselves rewarded by this ensemble’s feel for color, texture, and flow. Afternoon Of A Georgia Faun is what its title implies: an impressionistic world to explore time and again.
