A blacksmith and an amateur gunslinger embark on journey through the west together but soon separate and have surreal experiences of their own.
Cecil Taylor was the grand master of free jazz piano. "All the Notes" captures in breezy fashion the unconventional stance of this media-shy modern musical genius, regarded as one of the true giants of post-war music. Seated at his beloved and battered piano in his Brooklyn brownstone the maestro holds court with frequent stentorian pronouncements on life, art and music.
A documentary film about John Coltrane.
