Our Take

In the immortal words of the great Coleman Hawkins, "At Ease" is the name of the game with this smooth, soulful album. Teaming up with the Red Garland Trio, Hawkins effortlessly glides through each track with a grace and elegance that can only be described as pure jazz magic.

The album kicks off with the toe-tapping "I'll Never Be the Same," setting the tone for a journey through the golden era of jazz. Hawkins' saxophone skills are on full display, weaving in and out of the Trio's groovy rhythms like a musical mastermind.

One standout track is the sultry "You've Changed," where Hawkins' emotive playing gives the song a depth and complexity that is truly awe-inspiring. It's a testament to his artistry and musical prowess that he can convey so much with just a few notes.

The Red Garland Trio provides the perfect backdrop for Hawkins' soloing, with Garland's piano adding layers of richness and texture to each track. Together, they create a sonic landscape that is as lush and vibrant as a jazz club at midnight.

"At Ease" is a must-listen for any jazz aficionado, a timeless collection of tracks that showcases Hawkins at the top of his game. So sit back, relax, and let Coleman Hawkins and the Red Garland Trio transport you to a world of swinging rhythms and soulful melodies. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Coleman Hawkins

Coleman Hawkins, the legendary saxophonist known as the "Father of the Tenor Saxophone," burst onto the jazz scene in the 1920s and never looked back. With his innovative playing style and endlessly inventive improvisations, Hawkins quickly became a fixture in the jazz world, influencing countless musicians along the way. Hawkins' sound is unmistakable - bold, brash, and exuberant, with a sense of playfulness that belies his technical precision. His groundbreaking recordings, such as "Body and Soul" and "The Man I Love," have become classics of the jazz repertoire, showcasing his unparalleled talent and creativity. Offstage, Hawkins was a larger-than-life figure, known for his sharp wit and love of a good joke. He was a consummate showman, always ready with a quip or a one-liner to entertain his audience. But when he picked up his saxophone, all jokes were set aside, and Hawkins' music spoke for itself. Hawkins' influence can be heard in the playing of countless saxophonists who came after him, from John Coltrane to Sonny Rollins. His legacy is undeniable, and his impact on the world of jazz cannot be overstated. Coleman Hawkins was a true original, a musical pioneer whose name will live on for generations to come. So next time you're in the mood for some classic jazz, why not give Coleman Hawkins a spin? You won't be disappointed.
