Amazing! Great music! Thanks for share it! Excelente versión del "Blue Train" de John Coltrane la grabada por The GRP All-Star Big Band en el Gotanda Kan-i Hoken Hall de Tokyo en 1993 con los solos de Nelson Rangell, George Bohanon, Bob Mintzer y Russell Ferrante. La composición de Coltrane abría en 1958 el álbum "Blue Train" editado por Blue Note Records que, grabado en los famosos Van Gelder Studio, es la única grabación de Blue Note con John Coltrane como líder. #Jazz #BigBand
@Airegin247 the influence is there but Nelson has shown over and over again that he is his OWN artist...but yeah here its hard to tell....I love his solo...however
One clarification: it's Blue Trane, not Blue Train. It has nothing to do with trains. It's because of Col - Trane. John Coltrane was also called Trane.
@jhserres No offense,my friend.I just found out about that last summer.I saw the trio of Sanborn,Joey DeFranceso and Steve Gadd open for Tower of Power!An amazing evening!
Honestly I would not compare Rangell with D.Sanborn. I believe Rangell is a far better Saxo than Sanborn or Edgar Winter, which is also superb. U can tell the lung capacity this guy has and how alto he could get, too! Ferrante is also a great pianist! He may not be Peterson, Ellington, Grusin or Evans but surely kicks butt, big time!
@mrthundaboots Actually I like David Sanborn. I got several of his CDs. Did not know he'd suffered polio and that he'd been working on just 1 lung. My respects to him. I can understand why Rangell would have a better lung capacity. I'd never say Sanborn is a slouch...He's actually played with the coolest like Bob James. The solo saxo in tobacco road by E.Winter(roadwork) is gr8, however Rangell outstrips this guy.....The most outrageous is Ben Webster / Coleman Hawkins
Bob Mintzer is Mr, Finesse as always!
I always loved this Nelson Rangell solo
And Randy Brecker’s face.... 🤣
I have been listening to big bands for around 65 years , this one is up there with the best. It kicks !!!!
Mintzer kills it
He holds his saxophone like Sanborn.
Dang, thats one sick alto solo:)

LMAO!!! After giving an awesome solo at 1:25 he raises his eyebrow and says "yea...im nice"
@logansGT i love notes like that!
I'm liking this for John Coltrane.
@jhserres Considering Sanborn is blowing with one lung(childhood polio) i don't think he's a slouch!(-;
first thing I noticed 2. nelson is no push-over however. thx

The other guys are flashier but Mintzer swings his ass off.
How do they get that sound with only one bone?
I watched this over 20 times but I did not realized that! o_O Amazing... I think Nelson Rangel is helping out with some undertones. :o)

@TenorSaxBreed Fucking true man;)
much,,,much better then the coltrane version.............much better
Tsss Bob Mintzer pffff¡¡
Holding out a high G (a Kenny 'G'.. heh. heh.) for that long isn't that hard or hip. What is kinda hip is how he changes multiphonics in the middle.
can't stand sanborn clones.
Why you said that
He's not a clone. Nelson is light years ahead.
