JAZZ AT NIGHT: Think Deep by Coleman Hawkins - One of the first true greats of the tenor saxophone, Hawk practically invented bebop, reigned king of Kansas City swing, and inspired many of the legends of jazz. This is one of my favorite Hawk albums, with a strong backing crew and a lot of space in the songs to roam.
Think Deep takes me into a film noir movie every time I hear it. A great, classy swinging song to relax to on this Saturday evening.
Note: I posted the ballad Laura about a year ago. It is also on The Hawk Flies High album and is definitely worth a listen.
