Description
“Interplay for 2 Trumpets and 2 Tenors”, recorded in March 1957, was originally credited to “The Prestige All-Stars”: John Coltrane (tenor sax) alongside Idrees Sulieman (trumpet), Webster Young (trumpet) and Bobby Jaspar (tenor sax) with Kenny Burrell (guitar), Paul Chambers (bass), Art Taylor (drums), and arranger/songwriter/pianist Mal Waldron. It’s notable for its pairing of two dissimilar tenor saxophonists, and two trumpeters who also contrast with one another. One can also divide the four horn players by placing tenorman Coltrane and trumpeter Sulieman on one side and tenorman Jaspar with trumpeter Young on the other. The album features the first recording of pianist Mal Waldron's composition, "Soul Eyes", which went on to become a jazz standard. The trumpets and tenor saxes collectively create a warm, intimate, and inviting harmonic embrace. Kenny Burrell is sublime as is Mal Waldron, while the muted sound of Webster Young conjures the cool and sweetness of Miles Davis. But the secret weapon of this blowing session is pianist Mal Waldron, whose compositions and arrangements are custom-tailored. This interesting blend of instrumentalists lives up to its potential with Coltrane pushing boundaries, pointing in the direction his music would continue to take - affording the chance to hear just how radical his departure from convention was.
