Quintet in

When this album was made, both Julian Cannonball Adderley (the leader of this date) and John Coltrane were members of the Miles Davis Sextet. With Miles, the two saxophonists recorded the incomparable masterpiece Kind of Blue which was made around the same time that Cannonball Adderley Quintet in Chicago was recorded on March 2 & April 22, 1959. However, In Chicago reissued on LP years later as Cannonball & Coltrane is unique in that it presents the contrasts between Cannonball s alto and Trane s tenor without other frontline voices. By the time In Chicago was made, Cannonball had already recorded several albums under his own name with his own quintet. He had been invited to join the Miles Davis Quintet which also featured pianist Bill Evans, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Jimmy Cobb as a replacement for John Coltrane, who by the time In Chicago was made had returned to Miles group free of his drug addiction (after going cold turkey ), turning the quintet into a sextet. The rhythm section on In Chicago features Miles sidemen: Wynton Kelly on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Jimmy Cobb on drums. A final comment: even though titles such as in San Francisco are usually used for live performances, the complete Cannonball Adderley Quintet in Chicago LP was recorded in the studio. Serenata , from Cannonball s quartet album Cannonball Takes Charge (presenting the same personnel minus Coltrane) has been added as a bonus.
