John Coltrane Chim Chim Cheree Half Note 1965 Part 2

[dgwg2007]

Why don't they issue this second series of gigs from the Half Note. The first double cd is fantastic and this sounds incredible. Can't say enough about this band, after playing dozens of their albums and CDs nothing else matters. Happy Coltrane freak

I'm listening to Garrison on my right speaker kicking ass.

McCoy in my opinion has always been an underrated player, and his playing I believe was as innovative and groundbreaking as Coltrane's while they played together. COltrane knew this; apparently the public didn't catch on to the extent they did with Coltrane (WHo is at the very least a jazz demigod in my opinion). This recording is a gem, thanks for posting.

@artistrapster Welcome to Coltrane freaks corner. We're obsessed with the sound, McCoy's out of this world sound and John's ferocious playing. It's my favourite tune, love Chim ChimCheree -Indescribeable

8 minutes in, Coltrane starts playing 'A Love Supreme' - so, a rare opportunity to hear him playing that in concert (the only other time I can think of is when the quartet performed the whole sweet at Antibes, also in '65).

@postmeback McCoy plays it too, at about 0:45.

@postmeback Aaaaahhh, and again at 5:20! It's so cool to see these ideas develop throughout the quintet's career.
