HOLYWOOD

1968. France société anonyme. L’incendie est déclaré et tout l’immeuble est entrain de s’effondrer. On ne sauvera rien. Des décombres du vieux monde les enfants de Marx et de Coca Cola surgissent pour arracher le bleu et le blanc au drapeau tricolore. Le fond de l’air est rouge et la musique n’adoucira plus les mœurs. Le chantier peut commencer.

Si les Stones, les Who, les Kinks ou le MC5 composent la bande son de la revolution à coups de singles Molotov, ce sont des noirs américains qui ont fait sauter les digues durant les sixties. Contre le jazz à papa et la tradition occidentale Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor, Eric Dolphy, Albert Ayler ou Archie Shepp libèrent alors la note, explosent les formats, se lancent dans des improvisations furieuses qui redessinent un territoire sans frontières, aussi spirituel que politique. Avec le free jazz, le saxo devient lui aussi une machine à détruire l’ordre établi.

1968. France, Incorporated. The entire building was being consumed by flames and was slowly collapsing. Nothing would survive. Out of the rubble of the old world jumped the children of Marx and Coca-Cola, ripping the white and blue stripes off the French flag. Yet, the socialist revolution was more mythic than real and music did nothing to mitigate people’s behavior. It was time for innovation.

While singles from the Stones, Who, Kinks and MC5 provided an incendiary soundtrack for the revolution, it was Black Americans who truly blew the world from its foundations in the 60s. Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor, Eric Dolphy, Albert Ayler and Archie Shepp left behind the jazz of their fathers’ generation, liberating the notes, trashing the structures, diving headfirst into furious improvisations, inventing a new land without boundaries – neither spiritual nor political. Free jazz endowed the saxophone with the power to destroy the established order.
