DAKAR: a good sound,
By
This review is from: Dakar (Audio CD)
a fairly fascinating Coltrane album on the Prestige label. what's most interesting to hear on Dakar is the line up of 3 saxes...Coltrane on tenor (natch') and Cecil Payne and Pepper Adams on baritone. there are plenty of cool moments (the delightful title track and the smooth careen of Route 4). this is certainly not the ultimate Coltrane disc and not the best of the Prestige output (my money's on the stellar Black Pearls album for that honour) but this is a great album full of solid playing and memorable performances.

another buried treasure in coltrane's discography,,
By fluffy, the human being. (forest lake, mn) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dakar (Audio CD)
this fine set from april, 1957 has two baritone saxophone players joining up with coltrane's tenor. cecil payne and pepper adams deliver fine performances on an album that is quite conventional when compared with what was soon to come from john coltrane. nevertheless, mr trane hits many a moment of intensity here, and fans of his later work should enjoy this release just fine. the excellent piano man mal waldron is on board, too. it's a session that is well worth having.

Heard this album once and never turned back. The sheer intensity, the swing, the drive and the musicality of all the tracks opened up and whole new world of music.
