The youngsters today, as good as they truly are, still cannot match the dynamics on their horns like the Masters of the fifties and sixty's. Joe and Stan (Getz) are two prime examples............ today's players can blast you with a "thousand notes" and "runs" but fail to tell a musical story like you hear right here LIVE !!!!! EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Personal language is what this man had. And knew how to work the microphone!

As good as it gets!! Great Jazz !! 56 years ago !!!

Joe Henderson was one of the top tenor players - never receiving the recognition due. He could play anything - a rare giant in his own right.

one of the best if i had to listen to nothing else but joe henderson my ears would never be hungry and my sould would always be on fire.

NHOP and Tootie swangin' in the motherf$ckin' cut, whew! Joe Hen and Drew right there, too. Wow, interstellar beauty here...Thanks for sharing this!

Joe Henderson is the only tenor saxophonist in the same orbit with the great John Coltrane. A complete musician with technical ability to spare. His mode for joe and in an out are two of the great jazz recordings of that period. Thank you Kenny dorham for introducing the jazz World to the great Joe Henderson.

Everyone is playing beautifully here.

RIP Mr Heath.

This is so mindblowing, I'm fully aligned with all the comments here. OUTSTANDING!!!@@!!!

Joe Henderson is such an original genius ! To me he is right there with Coltrane, Rollins and Dexter. A great composer as well

Mind blowing, this must indeed be some of the best jazz ever recorded. Joe Henderson is truly amazing, but let's not forget Kenny Drew Sr. who was one of the outstanding pianists at that time. It's also hard to believe that Tootie Heath is the only living survivor of this quartet.

Joe Henderson is amazing in EVERY performance!

Joe's lines seem to come from the most beautiful place in all of hell haha. They're so amazing... there's this fury and angst behind them that's hard to put my finger on, but they're soooo unique and hit all the time!

This is jazz at its finest! There is nobody that sounds as cool as Joe on the Sax!

This is gold Jerry! Gold!

Jazz at its best. What a band....!

Joe was a consummate artist

Trio is one of the great trios of that period. Kenny is one of a few pianist that I would track in a classroom with Wynton. Niels was developing into a monster; and Tooie has always been one of the most underrated drummers.This was Dexter’s Band during this period!!! Joe takes no prisoners. Being there in his presence leaves one in bewilderment and respect for an unique and additional outlay of tenor creativity. Also, recorded shortly after Joe leftMiles’ Band.

Everyone sounds fantastic here, great sound. What a deep pocket, that's an awesome rhythm section. Wow.

Magnificent! I can’t believe this is the first time I’m hearing this.

That trio played great. Great ears. Joe H played a wide variety of moods and intention. Sometimes more chill/cool, sometimes cookin hot note for note precision nobody can touch him, then sometimes outright death and murder of live stock

The only thing wrong with Joe Henderson is nothing , and that is what's wrong with him, he has everything all the ideas, all the story , all the history, all the technique, all the passion and its really enjoyable to listen to. No one else has that - presumably this is why he wasn't more influential , I guess you'd want to emulate someone who has something you could add to.

@@josephgutkowski2059 music is also a symbol. Bach is pure music, but also German and Central European music. This music here is open to the world, incorporates many musical traditions, as synthesized in the black American community. So while the music itself is very hybrid, its origins are in a very specific community.

I reckon if I played that the neighbours'd STILL complain. Stuff'em. ITS HENDERSON TIME!

Sax cars no more cigars.Amazing

Jazz is universal! Also audience applauding at all the worst possible time is also universal! Freaking infuriating...
