Jack DeJohnette: Made in Chicago Henry Threadgill: alto saxophone, bass flute, bass recorder Roscoe Mitchell: soprano and alto saxophones, wooden flute Muhal Richard Abrams: piano Larry Gray: double bass, violoncello Jack DeJohnette: drums With Made In Chicago, an exhilarating live album, Jack DeJohnette celebrates a reunion with old friends. In 1962, DeJohnette, Roscoe Mitchell and Henry Threadgill were all classmates at Wilson Junior College on Chicagos Southside, pooling energies and enthusiasms in jam sessions. Shortly thereafter Jack joined Muhal Richard Abrams Experimental Band, and Roscoe and Henry soon followed him. When Abrams cofounded the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians in 1965, DeJohnette, Mitchell and Threadgill were all deeply involved, presenting concerts and contributing to each others work under the AACM umbrella. Jack brought them together again for a very special concert at Chicagos Millennium Park in August 2013, complet
