  • The Cecil Taylor Unit – studyjny album pianisty Cecila Taylora, nagrany w kwietniu 1978 i wydany w tym samym roku. Album ten jest jednym z trzech nagranych w 1978 r. i firmowanych przez The Cecil Taylor Unit. Jest to w historii nagrań Taylora ewenement, gdyż bywały okresy, kiedy nie mógł znaleźć firmy gotowej do wydania jego muzyki. Dlatego pewne lata jego rozwoju nie zostały w ogóle udokumentowane, np. nie istnieją nagrania pianisty z lat 1970-1973. Zespół Taylora był w czasie nagrywania albumu sekstetem. Instrumentarium zostało poszerzone o skrzypce. (pl)

  • Cecil Taylor Unit is an album by Cecil Taylor recorded in April 1978 and released on the New World label. The album features three performances by Taylor on piano with alto saxophonist Jimmy Lyons, trumpeter Raphe Malik, violinist Ramsey Ameen, bassist Sirone and drummer Ronald Shannon Jackson. The album was recorded during the same sessions that produced 3 Phasis. Taylor is heard on a 96-key Bösendorfer piano about which he commented: it "will stop you cold if you're not ready." The album is the result of extensive rehearsals, culminating in a four-day session in the studio. Taylor's strategy was to attempt to transcend the limitations of the studio environment by gathering momentum in the hours leading up to the actual recording. In his liner notes, Spencer Richards recalled attending a five-hour rehearsal of the pieces at Taylor's home, during which he was surprised to see the players reading from printed music. He wrote: "What followed was some of the most incredible music/sound I have ever heard... piano, trumpet, alto, and violin talked and chanted with each other, celebrating the joy of this music. What gorgeous sounds they made that afternoon!" In his section of the liner notes, Ramsey Ameen wrote: "If you approach this music with the archaeologist's shovel, you will find yourself among temple ruins. Should you, however, journey into this music with your gift of hearing, you will discover the enduring promise of an inscription carved in stone, addressed to the sun: 'Come, you will see your temple. When you rise above the horizon, it blazes gold in your face.'" (en)
