John Coltrane Quartet - On Green Dolphin Street - 1960



Uploaded by: meesterbenja
Video Description:
John Coltrane plays "On Green Dolphin Street" in Dusseldorf, Germany, March 1960. This is ultra rare footage featuring Coltrane with the Miles Davis Quintet of the time, sans Miles. Wynton Kelly is on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Jimmy Cobb on drums. The audio is out of sync, I'll have to try converting it to a different format and reuploading it some other time....hopefully the quality of the music will tide you over in the meantime.

Coltrane was not ... ( 3 months ago by weirdcollector)
Coltrane was not playing a Selmer Mark VI. From mid-fifties untill 1967 Coltrane always played a Selmer Super Balanced Action tenor saxophone ..... mainly with a Metal Otto Link Florida "no usa" moutpiece (they say it was a 6* facing but it's impossible to be sure about that just looking at pictures and videos)

the mark VI is the standard. witness the number of pros that play one, their enduring value, etc. there are some good modern horns, but the VI continues its dominance, decade after decade

Small correction ---Trane played a Balanced for most of his career....however the last horn he played was a new (at the time) VI...evidence of this can be found in the book about Impulse Records ("The House that Trane Built")

Well it was "ultra super rare" when I put this up a year ago since the John Coltrane Jazz Icons DVD wasn't released at the time. When it came out on DVD I mentioned in the comments that it was now easy to obtain, not to mention the quality on the DVD is much better than this since this was from an old VHS dub from who knows where. That being said, who really cares? The point is that this is some great vintage Trane.

That's the way my copy is, perhaps from being dubbed many times over. This was from a VHS copy before the Jazz Icons series put it out on DVD.

The sound waves are gay, but at least somebody's listening. Like I can't help but respect that forgotten critic who said "Coltrane's insights should remain in the confines of his own tortured psyche." Nobody even listens anymore. If nobody's morally offended by the stuff Coltrane's expressing, nobody's LISTENING, no?

It is so wonderful that we can actually see video of this truly GREAT artist in action! John Coltrane played his horn with so much passion and commitment that it stands as an example to whoever wants to be a jazz artist in today's artistically bankrupt music scene.
There they are. ... ( 2 days ago by nndl7pd)
There they are. It's unbelievable to see theses 4 together. Especially Wynton Kelly Paul Chambers and Jimmy Cobb! There are many videos of Coltrane and his place in the history is well documented. But this is one of the baddest trios of all time and there's hardly any video of them. Thanks 1,000,000 to whoever posted this.
