Hi ... I'm sure you'll enjoy it. The album, originally recorded in 1963, features 'trane, McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones, with Hartman doing the vocals. There are but six cuts - They Say It's Wonderful; Dedicated to You; My One and Only Love; Lush Life; You Are Too Beautiful; and Autumn Serenade. If you're not familiar with Hartman, this is a good introduction, and Coltrane plays in a very mellow, melodic manner.
A few months after recording this album, Hartman got together with Hank Jones, Illinois Jacquet, Kenny Burrel, Milt Hinton, and Elvin Jones, and recorded "I Just Dropped By to Say Hello", an album in a similar mood. His music was also featured in the movie "Bridges of Madison County." Check out the CD "Remembering Madison County" for a real treat. Listen, I could go on for hours about this guy ... As for myself, I like all kinds of music, from classical to hip-hop. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Shel... > > I have the Monk album (Riverside label) > that Coltrane plays on. Great stuff.
