Larry coryell the opening
Larry Coryell at the Village Gate is a live album by Larry Coryell, recorded with his band and then-wife Julie Coryell (the couple divorced in 1985; she died in 2009) on January 21 & 22, 1971 at the Village Gate in New York City. It was released on Vanguard Records (VSD 6573). This was the first album of his that his then-wife Julie Coryell sang on. It also contained a cover of a Jack Bruce song with whom Coryell had toured in 1968 as part of the Jack Bruce and Friends tour. Rolling Stone stated the album showed Coryell with a power-trio in rock form. In his semi-autobiography, Larry stated that Bronson and Wilkinson formed a tight rhythm-section, although it may seem an odd combination. Larry and Julie's eldest son, Murali, appears on the album jacket.
