This review is from: Four With the Wynton Kelly Trio (Audio CD)

If you're a fan of Joe Henderson, then you should buy this recording. Damn! This album grooves. Cobb and Henderson are a lethal combination. My favorite versions of these standards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Joe is truly a "tough" tenor man!, June 14, 1998

This is some of the freshest joe I've heard. He isn't afraid to take chances here- the rhythm section rises to the challenge more than not. You must check this out if you want to hear some of the beginnings of true sax genius...

This review is from: Four With the Wynton Kelly Trio (Audio CD)

This CD presents a live recording from Baltimore in 1968 of Joe Henderson playing with the classic rhythm section from Miles Davis' Kind of Blue years. Paul Chambers, Jimmy Cobb and Wynton Kelly swing hard and play more aggressively than they had in 1959 when Kind of Blue was recorded, most likely due to the surrounding electric energy coersive influences and freedoms paved by Ornette Coleman and his followers. At times during Joe's sax solos, it sounds as if John Coltrane is playing with Tony Williams, due to the approach of the rhythm section under Joe's sheets of sound. When it settles down for Wynton's piano solos it again feels like classic Miles early 60's swing. Joe is really going for it on the CD, which strangely is out of print.
