The actually quote ... ( 2 months ago by cemmi2)
The actually quote on Pres' last 59'Paris int. about H.Evans is: "He loved HIS inst., & I loved mine TOO!... so? F* U, F* Me...boom"! "Newk" was another nickname 4 Sonny.Because he resembled Bklyn. Dodger's pitcher Don Newcomb. Real name: Theodore Walter Rollins. Listen to the "My Old flame" from the 58' session with Max,KD,Wynton & PC. Newl lays out a riff in his solo that a year later became the basis for Trane's compostion "Like Sonny"

The beauty of jazz is not one musician outplaying the other, but the gorgeous juice of sharing the music onstage!

a little problem... ... ( 4 weeks ago by Nabzed)
a little problem... According to Alain Gerber, and I think he is right, John And Sonny were not really friends ! Rollins was jealous of Coltrane for a moment... And Coltrane considered sonny as a mentor AND as a musical "ennemy"...
According to Sonny, ... ( 4 weeks ago by JazzVideoGuy)
According to Sonny, they were friends. Very good friends.
who is Alain Gerber?
AlainGerber is a ... ( 4 weeks ago by Nabzed)
AlainGerber is a French Critic who wrote a book about john coltrane "Le Cas Coltrane". Very intersesting and instructive.. Yes Sonny and Trane were great friends for a moment... But in the book there is a long chapter about Sonny/John relationship.. According to sonny when He played with his trio, he played in this kinda group because there was no pianist he would have liked to play with but Mc Coy Tyner... Coltrane had yet taken him... That's an example. Read the book if you wanna learn more.
