Gheorghe Posted January 30, 2022 Report Posted January 30, 2022 Have listened yesterday evening to "John Coltrane-Duke Ellington". Really nice after a day with lot working, just to relax. John Coltrane is masterful, great as ever. But I think it was done mostly for commercial reasons. The best parts are those, where the piano lays off and Coltrane plays trio. Only on one track , where they use another drummer, I miss Elvin, since it´s only a very simple, basic oldtime styled drumming. I´m more familiar with Duke´s tunes as playing repertory than his playing himself. I have Duke-Mingus-Roach, and now this one. He seems to have a very spare style, not like Basie or Dameron, but somehow to compare.....what someone called "arranger´s style". But on the last tune "The Feeling of Jazz" he really comps beautifully...
