In a review for All About Jazz, John Eyles wrote: "Organic Music Society will probably appeal most to Don Cherry devotees and completists. In a separate AAJ article, Glenn Astarita stated: "Cherry and his large ensemble intertwine the east-meets-west vibe for a set that covers a lot of ground and fuses intermodal concepts, spanning the avant-garde jazz spectrum, entrenched in highly melodic song forms."

In an article for The Quietus, Jennifer Lucy Allan commented: "The Organic Music Society period is the beating heart of Don Cherry’s oeuvre, in that the music recorded does not belong to him, but was communally created – the ecstatic, multisensory, and communal manifestation of his mantra 'this is not my music'. The album Organic Music Society is just one artefact from this crucial period."

Giovanni Russonello, writing for Jazz Times, stated that, in relation to his previous albums, "Organic Music Society... gives us a fuller picture of Cherry as ensemble leader, spiritualist and cultural synthesizer. He's at the height of his powers here."

A reviewer for Head Heritage remarked: "Ragged, but sublimely beautiful, endearingly simple and, at times, frustratingly complex, melding the ancient and the modern - all the essential paradoxes of the human condition are engaged at length."

Matthew Fiander of PopMatters wrote: "Organic Music Society is as far out there as Cherry ever got... It both shows the extent to which he spread out here... and the reach of his influence." However, he concluded: "There's a lot to admire about Organic Music Society... but that doesn't mean you'll know what to make of it all."

THE WHITE LABEL PROMO, RADIO STATION-, AUDITION OR DEMONSTRATION COPIES AND RELEASES (such as the one we have here) were often distributed to the radio stations before the record was released to the public, sometimes as much as four months ahead. These records are generally considered to be the "first among equals": the VERY FIRST generation and the VERY FIRST pressings of the particular title; a PROTOTYPE and the earliest known official pressing of the record.

·      CONDITION:

·      THE RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)         THE VINYL IS ABSOLUTELY, PERFECTLY MINT,  as if never played before. The original luster is totally intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles like brand new. The labels look perfect, simply gorgeous, with absolutely no trace of wear around the spindle hole. The record is TOTAL PERFECTION - ABSOLUTE VISUAL NIRVANA! We are confident that, in this condition, the record we present here is truly once-in-a-lifetime find.

(b)         The records are STILL in their original inner, hi-grade PVC inner sleeves, which have - apparently with success - shielded the records from the harmful impact of elements over many years!

(c)         The records are pressed on a beautiful, high-quality, virgin-grade vinyl

(d)          The album  includes oringal insert/lyrics sheet (in Swedish and English)

(e)          The records are pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(f)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·      COVER (THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, LAMINATED, GLOSSY COVER):

COVER IS STRONG NEAR MINT

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-       Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the spine  (BARELY VISIBLE)    (VISIBLE ON BACK SIDE ONLY)

-       Cover has one corner slightly dinged (nothing significant)

NO OTHER VISIBLE FLAWS OR IMPERFECTIONS ON THE  COVER
