.......before I break this thread...

I really didn't get the feeling it was mainstream. My take on it was, it was recorded during the avant garde's height, and it was greatly influenced by it. It's pretty wild stuff.

I believe Monk's Dream from Unity was a duet.

Right now, I would really just love to hear that song. Maybe I will invest in that.

Allright, who thinks Tyner is absolutely at the top of his game for this session. This is one of my all-time fav's when it comes to Elvin Jones at the throne and any other avant-garde BN's from the mid 60's. I got the whole album down on the drums, Four By Five is the brightest most, fun piece to jam along on the drums. And at the end of Passion Dance, when Tyner and Henderson solo off eachother, I dig that! Great album!!!

I got a couple Stan Kenton albums. And no they weren't good sound quality. Don't remember the name, but I got one with drummer Nick Ceroli, brown cover.. Tons of reverb. That's what I ordinarily go for. I love that on the BN albums, but it doesn't work for me, for a big band.

Yo, the greatest day in Harlem! Got the DVD on the photo. It was nice. B-)

Don't know. All I know is they featured it on PLanes Trains And Automobiles, (1987) and I never ever heard the song, being played or being mentioned ever! I mean ever!

let's try this: S*T*O*P*

I think Jimmy Smith's style was predominantly steeped in the blues.. He always played everything soulfully, often mixing blues influenced runs and phrases into his solos.. There was also bebop influences, but mostly blues.. Yep. Home Cookin' is practically filled with it. Wait, it IS filled with it!

I have been answering my own questions lately..

I know. That's a loooooooooooow position.....

Yes, he does. I was talking about saxophones in general. My fault.

Actually no, it's quite obvious. BTW, McCoy Tyner, Real McCoy any sec. now.

Funny how this thread never gets old.

Did Ornette Coleman ever use this? I know he had some trio recordings. Can't think of the instruments though.

I want my to be seen. I can't wait for the day I have reached the 2,000 mark and display them all in my living room.

lol, I think they're getting the band as a whole...

No I want to be the thread killer!

Whole house to myself tonight! Blastin some Coltrane, Tyner, or whatever really loud avant garde I can dig up.

Well I'll just see if anyone replies after me.

A soprano bass and drums trio would sound nice, especially for some free jazz. What's freeer ( ) than that combo.

Funny and not funny at the same time.
