Keine Ahnung… hab nur eine Blues Classics, 1952-1953.
Ich glaub Definitive hat mal eine Compilation gemacht, damit vielleicht? Ob man da Trane irgendwo zu hören kriegt weiss ich nicht mal.
Hier ein Auszug aus Bruynickx‘ kleiner Biographie:
Although most of his recordings were aimed at the pop market, Earl was an extraordinary musician who must be considered as one of the great swing alto players. He was a powerful musician blowing with a fiery temperament. This dynamic playing was even accentuated in the recording studios where slight echo was added behind the solo work. However this technique used to commercialize his records was not really necessary because Earl had a tremendous swing and put a lyrical beauty in his work, that resulted in ravishing phrases full of strength and beauty. He could make his alto sing like no one else ever did and one doesn’t get tired of listening to his recordings. Aside of his King recordings there are also many other proofs of his great talent recorded as a sideman.
Coltrane war an den Sessions 1952-04-07 und 1952-08-15 beteiligt. Als er ging stiessen übrigens Blue Mitchell sowie Tommy & Stanley Turrentine dazu (alle ab 1953-06-06 für mehrere Sessions, Mitchell zudem auch schon 1952-12-17).
Auf meiner Classics sind genau diese Sessions drauf: zuerst die mit Coltrane, dann die mit Blue Mitchell, dann noch drei mit Mitchell und den Turrentines (auf den letzten beiden spielt übrigens Granville T. Hogan Schlagzeug)
