Freedom Trane

John Coltrane has been my light through the darkness. When there are questions, I'll ask 'what would Philly Joe Jones or Dexter Gordon do'; but when things get really weird, I can ask the 'Trane. - Jessica Williams. For her first trio outing in several years, Jessica Williams digs deep as she channels the spirit of John Coltrane with a set of originals along with compositions favored in performance by the saxophone legend. Joined by drummer Mel Brown and bassist Dave Captein, Williams is, as always, brilliant and transcendent. "I"m running out of superlatives to describe her playing!" - Humphrey Littleton, BBC.
