It's a live recording of one nights work,4/8/71 he was doing gigs like this all over the world during the 70's,he's playing with all his powers and just smokin,I love this record. The music is wild,intelligent and imaginative,the cover image catches the physical and reflective sides of him. 1968 - Joe Henderson - Tetragon - 00:41:01320. In the top right corner his name is written in English Joe Henderson in Japan in black,then all over the album are Japanese characters saying Joe Henderson in orange,they stand out against the light green of the studio space. Another connection to Miles is a 1968 live session he made with the Wynton Kelly Trio, released in.

Joe Henderson was hired by Miles Davis for a brief period around 1969, playing alongside his contemporary Wayne Shorter.

He looks reflective and in good physical shape,small, brown and lean. The following year’s ‘Tetragon’ is comparable, opening with ‘Invitation’. Joe is sitting cross legged in a studio space,he is wearing black and white finely stripped pants,sun glasses a watch and a saxophone strap,no shirt,he has a cigarette in his left hand and he's scratching his ear with his right,looking down,his tenor is sitting behind him on top of a black soft leather case,you can see the faded patina of the mkvi lacquer and the rubber Selmer mouthpiece. Future job growth over the next ten years is predicted to be 5.1, which is lower than the US average of 33.5. Fawn Creek has seen the job market decrease by -0.9 over the last year. This is my favourite Joe Henderson album cover. Fawn Creek has an unemployment rate of 4.7. Henderson has proven himself to be a tenor giant, up there with Rollins, Gordon. The first Joe Henderson album I bought,for no other reason than it was the only Joe Henderson album they had, was JOE HENDERSON IN JAPAN rec live in Tokyo 1971.I haven't listened to my albums for years,don't even have a turn table any more,my phone sits in a space between two book ends of albums,hundreds of them,for months I've had two on display,Blue Train on one side,Trane with his Tone Master and Joe Henderson in Japan on the other. There are great moments on this CD, and the tenor sounds great throughout.
