Jackie McLean: Jacknife (Blue Note Tone Poet Series) 1LP crate-digging Howard Johnson on tubaBlue Note, 1965 Jackie McLeans evocative 1965 album Jacknife captured the alto saxophonist in an envelope pushing post bop mode. The session featured two trumpetersLee Morgan and Charles Tolliverwho are heard together to great effect on Morgans groovy Soft Blue, but otherwise take turns in the spotlight. McLean also assembled a deeply engaged rhythm section for the date featuring pianist Larry Willis, bassist Larry Ridley, and drummer Jack DeJohnette.
