Nat Birchall: Afro Trane (title track, 2022)
Third all-solo outing from Nat Birchall. This time Nat pays homage to the patron saint of the tenor saxophone, John Coltrane. With a balanced programme of original songs and John Coltrane compositions the album focusses on the more Afrocentric aspects of the music.
from the album AFRO TRANE
compilation of never-heard tapes by legendary #coltrane taper frank tiberi! (kind of an awkward headline though, makes it sound like it's a lost album.)
if i understand correctly, tiberi's actual master tapes were lost in the universal studios fire in 2008 along with the entire impulse archive & these are earlier safety transfers. https://pitchfork.com/news/john-coltrane-live-album-tiberi-tapes-gets-first-ever-release/ #jazz
Coltrane wrote the tune Alabama in response to the racist murder of four children in the state. He based his piece on the speech given by Martin Luther King jnr as a eulogy at the girls' funeral.
It remains a remarkably powerful piece of music.

"John Coltrane & Cannonball Adderley" obviously by #Coltrane and #Adderley. Originally recorded in 1959, then released since mid-sixties under various names (at start just as Cannonball album). Begins w/fast tempo madness, but mostly ballads and jams. Coltrane is only sideman on this album though he wrote two tracks.
On my 2019 CD (AJC) there's also Coltrane's "Mating Call" album (1956 recording) as a bonus, that nicely doubles the playing time.
Good music.
Long work week, about to be a late night. Plenty of #Bordeaux and #Jazz to lead to irresponsibility…
This record was cheap, thrown into an order from a Discogs seller…I’m 10 mins in and have ZERO regrets. The sound is great, and I’m really liking the arrangements so far. This just tied #Coltrane for my favorite version.
This one goes out to the amazing people of #Minneapolis standing up for the ideals of freedom. I am hopeful and positive and that’s reinforced today.

"Settin' The Pace" by #Coltrane.
Easy going "night club" #Trane still with some superb playing. This is one of those Prestige's "cash in" releases. But very enjoyable. Recorded in 1958.
I was surprised that this one was lacking in my collection. Not anymore!

Venga, vamos a retomar un poco las #ClarinetAdventures. He estado un par de días practicando la intro de Giant Steps de John Coltrane. Hoy me ha dado por montar el tinglado para grabar y... a la primera toma! 🙌
Que disfrutéis de mis nulas dotes jazzísticas, yo la verdad es que me lo paso pipa 😂
