Cannonball Adderley “Somethin Else” (Blue Vinyl) LP

Somethin Else puts the focus on alto saxophone, hard bop, soul-jazz, and blues-rich melodic improvisation.

• Cannonball Adderley leads a small group featuring Miles Davis, Hank Jones, Sam Jones, and Art Blakey.
• The extended reading of “Autumn Leaves” is a masterclass in melodic improvisation, with Adderley's alto and Davis's trumpet taking contrasting approaches.
• The album is regularly cited among the finest hard-bop sessions in the Blue Note catalog.

For fans of Miles Davis, Nat Adderley, and Joe Zawinul.
