"In 2007, for the 40th anniversary of John Coltranes death, BBCs Jazz On 3 commissioned a tribute from sax virtuosi Dave Liebman and Joe Lovano, embracing the hard-bop Coltrane of the late 1950s as well as the anthemic free-jazz master he became. Resonance releases those tapes 10 years later, 50 years after Coltrane's passing. Liebman had to assemble a hastily modified version of his Saxophone Summit band (Phil Markowitz is on piano, the wonderful Billy Hart on drums), but the collective passion is palpable. Liebman and Lovano rip through Coltranes boppish Locomotion as a two-tenor tussle; Lovanos rugged tenor and Liebmans ethereal soprano sharply contrast on a segue of "Central Park West" and the rapturous "Dear Lord"; Coltranes world musicianship is evoked by the Spanish theme of "Olé"; and theres a prayerlike ecstasy to the freeform title track. The full breadth of the shortlived Coltranes legacy is rarely celebrated so authoritatively and completely." (John Fordham, The Guardian; 4 uit 5 sterren)
Album uit 1997 van kwartet rond bassist McClure, met Rick Margitza (ts, ss). De ex-bassist van Charles Lloyd's groep maakt hier mainstream postbop, swingend maar 'straight'.
