mikelz777 Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 Did John Coltrane ever record "Infant Eyes" and if so, what album(s) was it on? Quote
JSngry Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 The Wayne Shorter tune? No. "Soul Eyes", the Mal Waldron tune, yes, twice. Interplay for 2 Trumpets and 2 Tenors & Coltrane Quote
mikelz777 Posted October 26, 2009 Author Report Posted October 26, 2009 (edited) Thanks for straightening me out. I'm currently reading one of Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch novels (The Black Echo) and there was a reference to the Bosch character listening to a jazz station on the radio and hearing John Coltrane playing "Soul Eyes". I must have misremembered "Infant Eyes" by mistake because it is a favorite of mine but I re-checked the book and it was "Soul Eyes". Edited October 26, 2009 by mikelz777 Quote
JSngry Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 No problem. Most likely the reference was to the impulse! version (on Coltrane), which has become a classic over the years. Quote
Free For All Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 Both are GREAT tunes & much fun to play! (and hard & tricky) Quote
