Coleman, George
Amsterdam After Dark
George Coleman is an American jazz saxophonist best known for his work with Miles Davis and Herbie Hancock in the 1960's. He was also a member of outfits such as Max Roach's quintet, The Slide Hampton Octet, Miles Davis' Quintet and The Chet Baker Quintet. On the album 'Amsterdam After Dark', recorded in 1978 and released on Timeless Records in 1979, the listener is treated to six majestic tracks of the highest caliber and features a remarkable outing of advanced musicianship by jazz-giants in their prime, delivering an inspirational gem of an album. The all-star line-up includes Sam Jones (Dizzy Gillespie, Duke Ellington, Ben Webster) on bass, Billy Higgins (Donald Byrd, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane) on drums and Hilton Ruiz (Roy Brooks, Rashaan Roland Kirk, Sonny Rollins) on piano. Tidal Waves Music now proudly presents a long overdue vinyl reissue of this classic jazz album.
