What are your favorite John Coltrane albums/tracks? (flashbak.com)
Coltrane died of liver cancer at the age of 40 on July 17, 1967 (i.e. 56 years ago from today)....
Bud Powell - Autumn In New York (1953 Jazz) (www.youtube.com)
What are some jazz albums that you think deserve more recognition? (lemmy.sdf.org)
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....
