The first of the bonus posts today for John Coltrane's birthday, is a tribute rendition of his masterpiece, "A Love Supreme". From Jazz Video Guy, (Bret Primack), here is that tribute video. This performance is from a concert in Berlin, West Germany, circa 1987. The band lineup includes Freddie Hubbard on trumpet, Sonny Fortune on tenor saxophone, McCoy Tyner on piano, Reggie Workman on double bass, and Elvin Jones on drums. A quintet of legends, paying tribute to the one and the only, " 'Trane". A lot of the people in this quintet, were a part of Coltrane's bands. For sure, I believe McCoy Tyner, Reggie Workman, and Elvin Jones were all involved with 'Trane's music at one time or another.
