Freeflight is a live album by American jazz pianist Ahmad Jamal featuring performances recorded at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1971 for the Impulse! label.[1] Additional performances from this concert were released as Outertimeinnerspace in 1972. It was also the first album to have Jamal play electric piano. The Rhodes Piano was given to him by somebody living in Switzerland, and Jamal said he would continue to play the instrument in the future as well as his standard acoustic piano.

Critical reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars calling it "one of pianist Ahmad Jamal's finest recordings of the early '70s... An excellent effort".[2] Шаблон:Album ratings
