JOE HENDERSON QUARTET
TETRAGON
MILESTONE STEREO MSP 9017
Runout: MSP9017 A-1 T1
LP plays great. Visual slight scuff on last track side one, but it does not affect play. Otherwise, sounds perfect on my Rega P2 turntable. Cover is excellent, shiny and looks new. Please see photos.
Smoke-free and pet-free home.
Packed carefully and sent promptly.
“Long before his general recognition in the 1990s, Joe Henderson was admired by jazz audiences and all but worshipped by saxophonists. A player whose absolute command of the horn is equaled by the fecundity of his artistic vision, Henderson emerged in the early 1960s as an independent voice. He was neither overwhelmed by John Coltrane nor attached to the Coleman Hawkins or Lester Young schools. Mistakenly described early in his career as "primarily a soul saxophonist," his stock in trade was lyricism and harmonic daring contained in a sheath of rhythmic muscle. Of his several Milestone recordings of the 1960s, Tetragon stands as a major item in the Henderson discography. His rhythm sections for the album were made up of five of the most accomplished and adventurous young players of the day.” - Concord
“Tetragon is the seventh album by jazz saxophonist Joe Henderson, and his second to be released on the Milestone label. It was recorded on September 27, 1967 and May 16, 1968 and features performances by Henderson with two different quartets, both with bassist Ron Carter, one with pianist Don Friedman and drummer Jack DeJohnette, the other with pianist Kenny Barron and drummer Louis Hayes. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states that "Highlights of this album include the title track, "I've Got You Under My Skin" and "Invitation."".[5]
