Review by Ken Anthony

The album "Horns" by Günter Christmann, Gerd Dudek, Albert Mangelsdorff, Paul Rutherford, Manfred Schoof, and Kenny Wheeler is a masterpiece of avant-garde jazz. This album is a combination of six legendary jazz musicians who have come together to create a unique and innovative sound.

The album is a perfect blend of different styles of music, including free jazz, avant-garde, and experimental jazz. The musicians have created a cohesive sound that is both challenging and accessible to listeners. The album's tracks are all different, with each musician bringing his own unique style and sound to the table.

The album's opening track, "Horns," sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its haunting melody, intricate harmonies, and complex rhythms. The track features all six musicians, and they each take turns playing solos that showcase their individual talents.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Spirits," which features a beautiful and haunting trumpet solo by Kenny Wheeler, and "The Chase," which is a fast-paced and energetic track that showcases the musicians' virtuosity.

Summary by Ken Anthony

"Horns" is a must-listen for any jazz enthusiast. The album is a testament to the creativity and talent of these six legendary musicians and is a shining example of the power of collaboration in music.
