Tone Dialing is an album recorded in 1995 by the American jazz composer and saxophonist Ornette Coleman and his Prime Time ensemble. It was released in September 1995 by Coleman's Harmolodic record label, in partnership with Verve/PolyGram.[1][2] It was the Harmolodic label's first release, and "the first disc fully devoted to Coleman's music in eight years."[2] This album was dedicated to his former sideman Don Cherry, who died shortly after the release of the album.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars, stating, "despite the inclusion of one obnoxious rap, this free funk set is well worth picking up by open-minded listeners".[3]
