Coleman Hawkins – Good Old Broadway {Fantasy}[xrcd]

Editorial review from “amazon.com”
Coleman Hawkins is frequently identified as the “father” of jazz tenor saxophone playing. With a perfect rhythm section featuring his working band – Tommy Flanagan on piano, Manor Holley, Jr. on bass, and Eddie Locke on drums, Hawkins showcases his illuminating artistry on this collection of love songs from Broadway shows. This “classic” Hawkins album has never before been available on CD.
