Eddie ''Lockjaw Davis'' - Buddy Tate - Coleman Hawkins - Arnett Cobb • Very Saxy

 

Review by Scott Yanow
Tenor saxophonist Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis and his quartet (which includes organist Shirley Scott, bassist George Duvivier and drummer Arthur Edgehill) welcome three immortal tenors (Coleman Hawkins, Arnett Cobb and Buddy Tate) to what became a historic and hard-swinging jam session. On three blues, an original based on the chord changes of "Sweet Georgia Brown" and "Lester Leaps In," the four tenors battle it out and the results are quite exciting. The spirited music on this memorable LP will hopefully be reissued on CD eventually, for the performances live up to their great potential.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El saxofonista tenor Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis y su cuarteto (que incluye a la organista Shirley Scott, el bajista George Duvivier y el baterista Arthur Edgehill) dan la bienvenida a tres tenores inmortales (Coleman Hawkins, Arnett Cobb y Buddy Tate) en lo que se convirtió en una jam session histórica y llena de fuerza. En tres blues, uno original basado en los cambios de acordes de "Sweet Georgia Brown" y "Lester Leaps In", los cuatro tenores se enfrentan y los resultados son bastante emocionantes. Es de esperar que la animada música de este memorable LP se reedite en CD, ya que las interpretaciones están a la altura de su gran potencial.
