This tune was written by Jeff Coffin in homage to the late
great saxophonist, Dewey Redman. A fantastic arrangement by New Orleans
saxophonist and educator, Michael Jenner, this has a beautiful rubato melody
that might remind you of a Charlie Haden tune or a timeless folk melody. A
melodic and singable sax soli brings even more warmth and depth to this chart
and easy blowing changes (I to IV in Eb concert) allows every player to
improvise if they want to solo. This tune and chart both have lots of
personality and character and it’s both a player and crowd pleaser.
Dewey can be heard on Jeff Coffin's solo recording GO ROUND
on Ear Up Records.
