Richard Koloda has been working on a biography of Albert Ayler for a number of years now and it will soon be finished. When published it will be the first book-length biography, in English, of this major figure in the Free Jazz movement. Back in October 2001 Richard filmed an interview with Donald Ayler and his father, Edward, in Cleveland. During the interview, on a couple of occasions, Don started singing.
I'd like to thank Richard for letting me put this clip on youtube, and also Clive Buttle for his technical expertise. More information about Albert and Don Ayler is available at www.ayler.co.uk.
