John Coltrane My Favorite Things Live
ave listened to this a million times but the Emaj section of the second sax solo still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Especially when he starts playing those rapid fire sheets of sound at around 17:20 and he is overblowing and it is so guttural and otherworldly. Almost like speaking in tongues.
Les McCann & Eddie Harris Compared To What
Eddie Harris - tenor saxophone
Les McCann - piano, vocals on "Compared to What"
Benny Bailey - trumpet
Leroy Vinnegar - bass
Donald Dean - drums
Chet Baker - Leaving
Every time I get to Amsterdam, the first thin I do when I leave Central Station is to walk to the Zeedijk, just to look at the plaquette at the hotel where he died. And even after hundreds of visits I still get teary.. Especially when I read the last sentence; "for anyone who's willing to listen and feel".. His velvet voice, his whispering trumpet can cut straight trough me, but comfort me and warm my heart at the same time..
