Great CD! Coleman Hawkins Quintet with Horace Silver Birdland New York1952
This is a special 1952 broadcast from the famous NYC jazz club, Birdland. Coleman Hawkins Quintet with Horace Silver Birdland New York1952 The great tenor saxophonist, Coleman Hawkins, though known for his virtuoso traditional performances, also helped the young newcomers to jazz with their careers. This is such a recording, pairing him with young modernists of the day. Horace Silver had recently moved to NYC from CT. and was a sideman around this time with saxophonist Stan Getz and the soon to be "The Jazz Messengers" led by drummer Art Blakey, who also appears on this recording as another accompanist to Hawkins. Both Blakey drumming and Silver's piano accompaniment are bold and modern. Bassist Dillon "Curly" Russell was one of the most popular modern jazz bassists of the day and he provides, as always, great support. Trumpeter Howard McGhee is the second horn with Hawkins. His playing, at this time, was at it's peak. McGhee's style is an excellent example of the transition from swing to modern "bop" styles. Hawkins, himself is in good form and seems to be enjoying himself with the young lions.
There are actually 3 different sessions. The first with the above group features songs: Rifftide, I Can't Get Started, and Disorder at the Border. Horace Silver and basist, Russell remain in the second group, but McGhee is replaced by the great Roy Eldridge. Connie Kay, who would later be Kenny Clarkes' replacement in the MJQ, here replaces Art Blakey. He and Russell work well with with Horace in the rhythm section for three songs: Disorder at the Border, The Blue Room, and Stuffy. There is also a bonus recording celebrating the first "Playboy" jazz festival in Chicago in 1959. Here Hawkins is backed on four songs by a Chicago rhythm section: Eddie Higgins (piano), Walter Perkins (drums), and Bob Cranshshaw (bass). Another bonus is a 1960 Hawkins interview. Pretty amazing stuff!
