JOHN COLTRANE: EXPRESSION (Impulse!). To some listeners, this record may seem little more than an all-consuming squeal-in. Yet Coltrane fans will treasure it as the last one made by the great tenor saxophonist before his death ten months ago.

...spirituals that closed the second third of the concert. James Jones, baritone, once again stood out for the sheer professionalism of his performance. There was, however, a certain unaccustomed tightness in his production which did not, in the end, mar the overall effect. Also featured were Allan Haley, tenor, Donald Meaders, baritone. Martin Kessler, baritone, an excellent sextet in Webbe's "Glorious Appollo," and Phil Kelsey doing several prodigious "swoops" in the Poulenc...

...conversation continued in that tenor as I proceeded to question him about Vietnam, about which he knew incredibly little. Finally he sent me back to my testing. I protested that I was still feeling very badly and was sure that I couldn't finish the tests...
