Shades Of Blue by Don Rendell Ian Carr Quintet, released on Columbia as part of their Landsdowne series in 1965.

Gerald Lascelles wrote in a contemporary review in Jazz Journal:

The quintet stimulates a remarkably fresh feeling, and reveals little in the way of ad­herence to any particular jazz form. The leader’s constant shifts from tenor to soprano keep the front line alive and variable in tone contrast, and there is a constancy in the rhythmic re­sponse which is quite rare and always animated.

Ian Carr, who has been working with Don since the beginning of 1963, provides some splendid moments in solo work, ...Garrison ’64 is quite an ambitious approach to the new patterns set by Coltrane, Davis, and the other leaders of style today. It would be wrong to describe it as free form, but it conveys the same loose feeling.

Pendulum by the Mike Taylor Quartet, released on Columbia in 1966 as part of their Landsdowne series.

Kieron Tyler wrote for the Arts Desk:

"...Taylor’s piano appears to be mathematically structured with, at times, a slight undertone edging towards Bossa Nova territory. What’s disconcerting is the lack of repetition of phrases, a constant roaming through a restricted scale and short sections of rhythmic punctuation on the keyboard. Melody and a linear through-line (following such, or returning to such) do not seem to be the point. On Taylor’s own material, beyond the drums, structure is provided by collating back-to-back rhythm-based sections; each of which is different from the other. It’s like free jazz, were it not improvised."

Synthesis by Laurie Johnson, The London Philharmonic Orchestra and The London Jazz Orchestra, released on Columbia as part of the seminal Landsdowne Series in 1970.

One of the more ambitious titles in the legendary Lansdowne series -- a batch of work from mostly-soundtrack composer Laurie Johnson -- featuring key solo work by Joe Harriott on alto, Tubby Hayes and Tony Coe on tenors, and Kenny Wheeler on trumpet! - Dusty Groove

Zeitgeist -- Based On Poems By Jill Robin by Tony Coe, released on EMI as part of their Lansdowne Series in 1977.

Wonderful Arts Council funded LP by Gideon Coe's dad. Love it!

"A very hip set from the UK scene -- composed and led by Tony Coe on soprano, tenor, and bass clarinet -- with work from Norman Winstone on voice, Kenny Wheeler and Henry Lowther on trumpets, Frank Ricotti on percussion, Chris Pyne on trombone, and James Gregory on flute!" Dusty Groove
