Timeline
Giuseppi Logan (May 22, 1935 – April 17, 2020) was a jazz musician, originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who taught himself to play piano and drums before switching to reeds at the age of 12.
At the age of 15 he began playing with Earl Bostic and later studied at the New England Conservatory.
In 1964 he relocated to New York and became active in the free jazz scene.
Logan played alto and tenor saxophone, bass clarinet, flute, piano and oboe.
After Pullen's departure, pianist Dave Burrell joined the group.
He recorded two albums for the ESP-Disk record label and later appeared on an album by Roswell Rudd on the Impulse! label.
[In the summer of 1964], Giuseppi Logan was 'studying' with me, meaning: he wanted to know certain things, and I needed an alto player, so he played all of my concerts, and occasionally I would let him have some of his things played in the group.
He had a great deal of difficulty with getting people to play his music.
I think at the time I was the only trumpet player who could play his music, and I loved playing it.
No one sounded in an ensemble like Giuseppi.
He held his head back all the way, explaining once, 'This way my throat is completely open,' so he could have more air coming through his windpipe.
He used to pride himself on playing up to the fourth octave on alto.
The things that made him different as an improvisor were the way he placed his notes, that sound he got, and then what the others in his group played behind him.
His pieces were very attractive for those reasons.
Giuseppi had his own points of view about music, which is what this music is supposed to be about.
Giuseppi was doing an awful lot of drugs—he burned out, well, actually, he flipped out and never came back.
I think that helps explain what happened to Giuseppi.
Also, he was mentally ill to some degree and he attacked me once, just randomly.
He would assault people without any warning; I loved his music, however, and when he did his first session, resulting from the October Revolution [ESP 1007, Giuseppi Logan Quartet], Milford Graves and he filed through the studio and as they walked in to record, Giuseppi turned to me and said "if you rob me, I'll kill you."
Milford was mortified—he had asked me to record Giuseppi—I'd given him a record date and he threatened me with death.
At one point, I was standing with the engineer in the control room, and I thought the piece they were playing was stunningly beautiful.
It sounded totally spontaneous, as if they were ad-libbing and commenting like a gorgeous conversation.
Suddenly, I heard a 'thwuuunk', and I realized that the tape had run out.
The engineer and I were so absorbed, we hadn't been paying attention.
I thought "oh God, this remarkable thing is lost. It was interrupted in the middle, and it's gone."
Richard Alderson was the engineer, and he got on the intercom and said "Giuseppi, the tape ran out."
Without a pause, Giuseppi said "take it back to before where it stopped and we'll take it from there."
So he did, he wound it back and played some bars of it and took down the record button, and they resumed exactly what they were doing—there was no way of telling where one or the other ended.
A 1965 press release from ESP-Disk indicates that a third album was planned, but never released, possibly due to Logan's increasingly erratic behavior.
This title was supposed to have been ESP-1018, The Giuseppi Logan Chamber Ensemble in Concert, but this catalogue number was eventually assigned to an album by The Fugs.
Vintage footage of Logan comprises a short film by Edward English.
Anecdotes about the man are scarce, but those that exist illustrate his influence over those he worked with.
