Whilst I have been a fan of the more 'free' jazz, I've always been curious to know whether it was marketed as head/psychedelic/stoner type music in the same way music like Pink Floyd/Velvet Underground/Sonic Youth/Eno/garage and psych punk bands/Spacemen3 /techno/lo-fi etc..etc..are?
I understand that HEROIN was quite synonymous with most of the jazz legends, but were psychedelics?
I'm mainly curious about the Impulse Label releases, I guess the Miles Davis 70s output, Don Cheery, Ornette Coleman, latter Coltrane, free-jazz but was jazz music per-se taken as a more 'head' type music IN IT'S DAY?
