The John Coltrane Quartet 1961 - Africa/Brass (2008 HDtracks) [FLAC@96khz24bit]  John Coltrane  Wikipedia: John William Coltrane, also known as "Trane" (September 23, 1926 – July 17, 1967), was an American jazz saxophonist and composer. Working in the bebop and hard bop idioms early in his career, Coltrane helped pioneer the use of modes in jazz and was later at the forefront of free jazz. He led at least fifty recording sessions during his career, and appeared as a sideman on many albums by other musicians, including trumpeter Miles Davis and pianist Thelonious Monk. As his career progressed, Coltrane and his music took on an increasingly spiritual dimension. Coltrane influenced innumerable musicians, and remains one of the most significant saxophonists in music history. He received many posthumous awards and recognitions, including canonization by the African Orthodox Church as Saint John William Coltrane and a special Pulitzer Prize in 2007. His second wife was pianist Alice Coltrane and their son Ravi Coltrane is also a saxophonist.

Records Genre: Jazz, Hard bop, 60s Jazz Duration: 33:30 Website: http://www.hdtracks.com/africa-brass Wikipedia: Africa/Brass is the eighth studio album by jazz musician John Coltrane, released in 1961 on Impulse! Records, catalogue A-6. The sixth release for the fledgling label and Coltrane's first for Impulse!, it features Coltrane's working quartet augmented by a larger ensemble to bring the total number of participating musicians to 21. Its big band sound, with the unusual instrumentation of French horns and euphonium, presented music very different from anything that had been associated with Coltrane to date. AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow: John Coltrane's debut for the Impulse label was a bit unusual, for the great tenor and his quartet were joined by a medium-sized backup group on Eric Dolphy arrangements of "Africa," "Greensleeves," and "Blues Minor." "Africa" in particular is quite memorable although Coltrane would not pursue any further recordings in this direction in the future, making this a change of pace in his discography.  01 - Africa - 16:06 02 - Greensleeves - 10:01 03 - Blues Minor - 7:23 Personnel: John Coltrane — soprano and tenor saxophone Booker Little — trumpet Julius Watkins, Bob Northern, Donald Corrado, Robert Swisshelm — french horn Bill Barber — tuba Pat Patrick — baritone saxophone McCoy Tyner — piano Reggie Workman — bass Elvin Jones — drums May 23 session only: Freddie Hubbard — trumpet Julian Priester, Charles Greenlee — euphonium Jim Buffington — french horn Garvin Bushell — piccolo, woodwinds Paul Chambers — bass on "Africa" June 4 session only: Britt Woodman — trombone Carl Bowman — euphonium Eric Dolphy — alto saxophone, bass clarinet, flute Art Davis — bass on "Africa"    ♪♬♫ ENJOY! ♪♬♫ Sharing Widget |
