Elvin Jones' "Live at the Lighthouse" Revisited

Saxophonist Don Aliquo, saxophonist Miguel Alvarado, bassist Rob Linton and drummer Dave Potter revisit the "Live at the Lighthouse" live album by Elvin Jones. The album featured performances recorded in 1972 at the Lighthouse Café in California, released on the Blue Note label. The original album featured Jones' quartet with saxophonists Dave Liebman and Steve Grossman and bassist Gene Perla. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars calling it "Exciting and adventurous music that stretches the boundaries of modal hard bop jazz".
Post-bop era jazz drummer Elvin Jones (9/9/1927 – 5/18/2004) was most famously a member of John Coltrane's quartet, with whom he recorded from late 1960 to late 1965, Jones appeared on such albums as My Favorite Things, A Love Supreme, Ascension and Live at Birdland. After 1966, Jones led his own trio, and later larger groups under the name The Elvin Jones Jazz Machine. Elvin was inducted into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1995. In his The History of Jazz, jazz historian and critic Ted Gioia calls Jones "one of the most influential drummers in the history of jazz" and was ranked at Number 23 on Rolling Stone magazine's "100 Greatest Drummers of All Time".
