It was reissued along with "Once Upon a Time" and "Stride Right" on Solar:

Georghe, Glad to see that you have not completely turned away from bebop. Just read on another thread that you said your interest now is in music by Alice Coltrane and others. And no longer play or listen to Bebop, or Hard Bop. Some years ago I focused my attention on "Free or Avante-Garde" jazz. But after a while, I left that music behind me. It was not providing me with listening pleasure. I realized that the music I truly love has to (usually) swing and that Traditional Jazz, Swing, Mainstream, Bebop, West Coast Jazz and Hard Bop are the styles of jazz that bring a smile to my face and makes me feel good.

I am the last one if it´s about fan of Oscar Peterson, but the few I can listen to is with Brown and Thigpen, where he is not so overwhelming. Night Train and We Get requests is more spare, more inside music than just banging all then 88 keys

infos plz: Alice Coltrane I suppose ?

The more I am involved my self in jazz being in increasing demand since I have that damn good band "Bop-Explosion", the more I get tired of regular straight ahead for LISTENING. My faves now are especially those who have a very spiritual side of it. Alice Coltrane, Pharoah Sanders, Albert Ayler. My own band started playing bop type music, but I got rid of it and compose other, my own stuff, and for listening records like this one thrill me, or make me believe, pray.....

this one I have. But my favourite Bird is the CBS double LP "One Night at Birdland". Just longer solos, more interesting sidemusicians who sound good in top form. But as a starter, I also had the Bird Savoy. But even then it sounded a bit oldfashioned from the sound, I mean the drums are not very well recorded. I like on "Birdland" the magic of Art Blakey´s drums very much.

That Harold Danko Coltrane album is excellent! I always forget about Danko.

It's a great record and no reason it can't be 'all of the above', silos are for grain not music.

Thanks BBS. Say what you want about AAJ right now there are about 50 views here, and almost 600 over there, plus 20 "shares". Pretty good reach.

Sold.

Thanks for the thread. Unfortunately, I have nothing helpful to add. But it is a nice coincidence, since I was just thinking of Jenkins a couple of weeks ago when I realized I don't have Jazz Eyes, so listened to it online. Looking around, I came across an earlier thread on his discography, most of which was repeated above. As pointed out, all his recordings except for the 1990 Clifford Jordan big band date were in 1957. What a year for him! I always enjoyed the Jenkins, Jordan, and Timmons album, so I gave it another spin. Based on the comments above, I listened again to the album with Kenny Burrell, and it's also a nice one. Edit: The Mobley album with Jenkins never stood out to me among the 50s Mosaic albums, so I didn't listen to it much, but I was much younger then. I'll have to give it another chance!
