Contours

Album by Sam Rivers

Contours is an album by American saxophonist Sam Rivers, released in 1965. The record blends hard bop and avant-garde jazz with angular melodies, shifting time-feels and free-form improvisation, marking a transitional phase in Rivers's move from mainstream post-bop into more exploratory, experimental territory in the mid-1960s.
