Blue Gene is like one of the better Blue Note records that weren't released by Blue Note

I can't believe this guy doesn't have more listeners. I Especially like the stuff he did with Sonny Stitt.

Does anyone know what album GENE AMMONS played "PLAY ME" on ? The Neil Diamond song GENE made his own. When you hear it get ready to weep, in a good way. It's been over 35 yrs for me since I heard it and I'm 58. It's special to me for personal reasons, but I know you'll like it. thanks

lo mejor que puede ofrecer este individuo es un estilo sutilmente minimalista que acaricia desde el timpano hasta las neuronas.

A beautiful soloist who did not use too many notes to say something. of course, he really could have said a lot more if he didn't lead a sad life - in particular later on. I don't remember the recording but i once think it was a Miles Davis recording i was listening to when there were solos by both he and Coltrane - beautifully split in the stereo field - and my god Ammons just left Coltrane in the dust. I like Coltrane, but i like Ammons much much more. His cool playing does the same thing to me that Eddie Harris does. What a blessing to have this brilliance left for us to listen to FOREVER.

While many sax players are thinking on how they can one-up another on playing the most notes in record time or scream the most, Jug was all about feeling and soul. The tenor sax was a fitting choice for him, and his playing was relaxed and enjoyable. I can mention very few sax players who I can listen to endlessly without getting tired of - Gene's one of them.
