Now “The Complete, Legendary, Live Return Concert” (Oblivion), a performance of Taylor’s quartet recorded at New York’s Town Hall in November 1973, is out now on select streaming platforms. In the years leading up to the show, Taylor had been teaching at Antioch College and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Even though the jazz avant garde, of which he is a founding father, was thriving, Taylor was creating recordings on his own Unit Core label in only limited editions. He released the second half of this concert in 1974 as “Spring of Two Blue-J’s,” pressing only 2,000 copies.
