"Tenor Conclave" is an apt title for tonight's Jazz Feature. Four major tenor saxophonists performing on this date backed by a superb rhythm section. Zoot Sims and Al Cohn were established by the time of this date and John Coltrane and Hank Mobley were then up and coming stars. The great rhythm section was Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on bass and Arthur Taylor on drums. Two originals by Hank Mobley and Hank's arrangements for the four tunes on the date. This was a fine and rare session where making music was a priority and not ego and pyrotechnics. The four saxophonists cohere and compliment one another and swing you into bad health! Enjoy "Tenor Conclave" tonight and as always guess who is taking the solo. Think of Cohn and Sims as brothers and Coltrane and Mobley as cousins. Have a ball!
