GOOD SHOW

"George is back at Ronnie Scott's in London some 15 years after first recording there. This time English Alto Sax man Peter King joins the Quartet for 4 tunes. Pete can play- sounding like early Bud Shank at his very best. George has the ballad feature on Nancy and Never Let Me Go (the Livingston-Evans tune)and the tempo soon goes up a bit. The local rhythm section is led by pianist Julian Joseph. I must report that the 2'nd track is one of those piano in the middle numbers. I hope you have a greater tolerance of that motif than I do. ---- George Coleman also appears Live with the Ahmad Jamal Trio - OLYMPIA 2000. George plays on 4 10 min plus standards and then sits out as Ahmad does 2 original trio pieces."
