John Coltrane Dear Old Stockholm 1963 Grp Records 1 Dear Old Stockholm 2 After the Rain 3 One Down, One Up 4 After the Crescent 5 Dear Lord Album Review This CD contains five excellent performances by the John Coltrane Quartet from two occasions when drummer Roy Haynes filled in for Elvin Jones. A definitive "Dear Old Stockholm" and Coltrane's mournful ballad "After the Rain" are from Apr. 29, 1963 while the beautiful "Dear Lord" and two long and raging performances ("One Down, One Up" and "After the Crescent") date from May 26, 1965. Although Haynes had a different approach on the drums than Jones, he fit in perfectly with the group, stimulating Coltrane to play brilliantly throughout these two sessions. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide Album Credits Jimmy Garrison Bass McCoy Tyner Piano John Coltrane Sax (Tenor) Roy Haynes Drums
