Unmistakeably Coltrane...........regardless if he's playing soprano, alto tenor or a kazu! Brilliant!

Coltrane is killing that alto sax

I love John Coltrane

I've always dug Jerome Richardson on flute When I was 14,my uncle Jimmy turned me on to the "Midnight Oil" album.That was in 1964

Nunna me cansare de oir al mejor saxofonisten de todos los tiempos Virtuoso el mejor

Most of these Prestige Gene Ammons dates were more-or-less glorified "jam sessions"; however a common unifying element was the presence of the vastly under-rated pianist Mal Waldron (composer of "Soul Eyes", which was later covered by Trane on his Impulse LP "Coltrane!"), who served as ad hoc arranger and occasional composer (and whose other jazz credentials include the immortal live Five Spot sessions with Eric Dolphy, Booker Little, Richard Davis, and Eddie Blackwell). Also notable is the presence of the remarkable drummer Art Taylor, whom Coltrane later utilized on his historic "Giant Steps" sessions. Add in the fact that the liner notes of the original liner notes of the LP "Groove Blues" indicate that the alto sax that Trane was playing had been borrowed from noted jazz writer Ira Gitler; this may suggest that Trane's horn was "lost" or "stolen" (it is also quite possible that once Paul Quinichette showed up they decided that an alto was more appropriate for the arrangements)...but just remember that this was 1957 or so and Trane may have still been "sick" (if you don't know what that means in jazz parlance, well...). That being said, Trane kills it on alto. And a probable offshoot from these sessions (also look for Gene Ammons "The Big Sound") was the record "Cattin' with Coltrane and Quinichette", one of my first jazz records, purchased in 1976. Mal Waldron again on piano, with the venerable Ed Thigpen on drums (from the Oscar Peterson Trio, his only appearance on Prestige, as far as I know...), and a bassist that I have never heard of since, Julian Euell.

Nice! Coltrane On Alto is a real treat!!

Is John William Coltrane on alto sax... Listen up !! Minute 6:42

Beautiful performance God Bless the Artists Thanks kasturi G

I wish there was more trane on alto .... Very nice

Very good. Traje for ever!

incredible.

title should be gene ammons-ammons joy by mal waldron as is indicated on the album, we all love coltrane but give some credit to the people who invited him to play on this great album.

Thats Coltrane, probably the single best Saxophonist to ever pick up a horn, in my opinion anyways. Then theres Wayne Shorter, who, to my mind is almost up there with Coltrane. Pretty cool to hear Jerome RIchardson's flute on this too. To be honest I didn't know much about Richardson, apart from remembering his lil cameo on a STEELY DAN record, knew he was a sax player but never heard much of him, let alone to know that he played flute. Great player!

I wish my dad was still alive, just to share comments etc.😂

sooo groovin

JUG sessions were great, all masters in one place thanks to "m.r soul" in tenor

Pepper Adams rips the baritone also

Tranes the Word

Wow. I actually prefer Coltrane on alto.

言われないとわからないな。

I think tranes tone on the alto was better than his tenor tone

For 2 reasons the alto sax sound better them tenor in the Coltrane hands: 1 - for fast players, like Coltrane, the alto sound better and 2 - the Coltrane tenor tone is a shit.
