John Coltrane & Stan Getz: Hackensack (Rifftide)

Back


Tenor giants John Coltrane and Stan Getz lead an incredible group through a tune claimed by both Thelonius Monk (Hackensack) and Coleman Hawkins (Rifftide).

Oscar Peterson sits in on piano with the incomparable rhythm section of Paul Chambers (bass) and Jimmy Cobb (drums).

S...! This is as fine an example of what jazz playing is/was as any. Coltrane, Getz, Oscar, Chambers...F...! Bad, bad boys.

To give complete credit, this tune is based on Gershwin's Lady Be Good.

Did this specific line-up recorded any LP together? I can't remember that much collaborations between Getz-Coltrane, anyway, I'm not that much into "remembering" line-ups or names...

Great clip and thank you for posting.


Sorry that last comment showed up on top, it should be a response to much earlier comment that I thought I was making a reply to.

Yeah, reading the comments on the jazz videos I can see how obsessed and judgemental the DARE-brainwashed younger generation is with the drug use of the musicians. Enjoy the music! Stop fixating on the drugs.
