Synopsis

Product Description
Legendary vibraphonist Mike Mainieri, the leader of Steps Ahead, joins alto saxophonist Charlie Mariano and bassist Dieter Ilg in a double-CD tribute to John Coltrane, Crescent. Mainieri says, 'This was one of Charlie Mariano's last recordings before his death in 2009. Just about every selection on this 2-CD set was a first take. Charlie's energy and the essence of his soulful performance were an inspiration to me those two memorable days, which I cherish as a gift from an enlightened soul... The music of John Coltrane and Charlie Mariano both left a large footprint for generations of musicians and fans to follow. I'm fortunate to have known both of them personally as a friend and fan.' Tracks include: Mr. Syms, Wise One, Ole, Naima, Crescent, Giant Steps, Miles Mode.
