I think you can tell from these that I am buying a lot of music from the late 50’s / early 60s lately....
I just picked up this LP and I’m digging it. Three tracks, recorded live in 1961, with Eric Dolphy, McCoy Tyner, Reggie Workman and Elvin Jones. It’s a bit further out there than I’m used to but it’s fine. There’s not a boring measure in the 35 1/2 minutes here.

Coltrane died of liver cancer at the age of 40 on July 17, 1967 (i.e. 56 years ago from today)....
In my opinion, Eddie Henderson’s realization is amazing, heavily influenced by miles davis’s works; with immaculate percussion & funky playing throughout the album. Especially great if you like jazz fusion/funk. Excellent the whole way through. Certainly, one of the best works of jazz fusion, in my opinion....
