John Coltrane, Yusef Lateef, Sonny Rollins........................
I see a trend emerging.
This feels like more than a "moment". An Epiphany, perhaps.
a recognition of the importance of the Tenor sax in the world order.
Come on in, my friend, there is a whole world awaiting you.
There's a Monk boxed set arriving too though Brian so not just the sax. I'm a long time lover of Alice Coltrane too so a bit of harp, piano and oud thrown in!

No, No resist.
the tenor sax..... it is the way forward. dont stray.
On the other hand, if you are lucky, there will be some Charlie Rouse or George Barrow in the Monk stuff. Barrow, in particular, is a hidden gem
I shall let you know.

Nothing wrong with a bit of Monk. Or a bit of Alice Coltrane as well.
Might I suggest 'Hunting Ashram Monastery' (Impulse As 9185), as well as the beautiful final track on John Coltrane's 'Cosmic Music' (Impulse MIPL 515)
Talking of Monk - how about investigating the collaboration with Mulligan - 'Monk and Mulligan'.
And whilst we are on the "M"s, there is Mingus to discover .... .
