He played on Charlie Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra which I consider to be one of the very greatest music recordings of all time. He also played with Don Cherry, including Complete Communion, which is a free jazz cornerstone.

You know, I'm not sure why, but I thought about mentioning Escalator but for whatever reason that album just doesn't hit the spot with me. I have a hard time enjoying it. I'm not criticizing it. I'm sure the short-coming is my own and I need to spend more time with that record to develop the appreciation it deserves. |

RIP. His stuff with The Ex is fantastic.

I was fortunate enough to have a consult with Tony at the University a few years ago though I never attended classes there. I met with him to discuss my plans for an independent music foundation with the goal of increasing public awareness and appreciation of experimental sound.
I was so foolish, as my piddly library of ~10,000 albums at that time surely paled in comparison to the University's library (and likely to Conrad's own collection). Still, the head of the music department liked my work and offered that I lecture at the college and submit my 5'50" of Pop work as my thesis, so it wasn't entirely for naught. The consult was certainly eye-opening and I'm grateful that I could meet the legend before his passing.
