Product Details

Recorded in 1960, when Redd and alto saxophonist Jackie McLean were actually performing in the off-Broadway production itself, this session captures something rare: musicians playing characters who are musicians, with all the urgency and desperation of the play's subject matter bleeding directly into the grooves.


Freddie Redd's music for Jack Gelber's play 'The Connection' has become the most celebrated album of this excellent pianist-composer's career. Jackie McLean's full-bodied alto is absolutely incandescent throughout. Rudy Van Gelder remastered edition. Blue Note. 2005.
