Cannonball Adderley - Something Else
âIs that what you wanted, Alfred?â we hear in Miles Davisâ unmistakable rasp at the end of âOne for Daddy-O,â making it clear that the legendary (and assertive) trumpeter was not just playing the role of sideman on Somethinâ Else, the sole Blue Note album by Cannonball Adderley. The alto saxophonist was a membÂer of Davisâ band at the time and the depth of their musical camaraderie lifts this session up to rarefied heights throughout, from the breathtaking performance of âAutumn Leavesâ that opens the album to the thrilling call-and-response theme of the title track. Pianist Hank Jones, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Art Blakey round out the quintet on this timeless classic.
