In the Tradition is an album by American saxophonist and composer Anthony Braxton recorded in 1974 and released on the Danish SteepleChase label. The album features Braxton's interpretations of jazz standards and was followed by a second volume recorded at the same sessions which was released in 1976. It was originally going to be a Dexter Gordon album, but due to Dexter being ill, Braxton filled in for him.




Reception


The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "The great avant-gardist Anthony Braxton threw the jazz world a curve with this album. ...A historical curiosity, this set is not as essential as Braxton's explorations of his own music."
