Gene Ammons Blue Gene on 180g 45RPM LP

Another of the mid-'50s Gene Ammons studio jam sessions for Prestige, Blue Gene lives up to its title by utilizing blues changes as the basis for three of its four selections. Pianist Mal Waldron wrote all these lines and the minor-key ballad, “Hip Tip.” Ammons was one of the most expressive saxophonists and, in Idrees Sulieman and Pepper Adams, he finds true soulmates here.
