Coleman Hawkins slows to a candlelit pace on At Ease with Coleman Hawkins, back on 180-gram vinyl in the Moodsville Acoustic Sounds Series.

Hawkins did more than anyone to turn the tenor saxophone into a jazz solo voice, and by 1960 he had nothing left to prove. Prestige's Moodsville imprint was built for late-night listening, and this seventh volume hands him eight ballads and standards with a quartet that knows exactly when to stay out of the way. Rudy Van Gelder recorded the session at his Englewood Cliffs studio.

Tommy Flanagan's piano is all tact and glow, with Wendell Marshall on bass and Osie Johnson keeping time on drums. The Gershwins' "For You, For Me, For Evermore" opens the set with that huge, breathy tone wrapped around every phrase. Later, "Poor Butterfly" and "I'll Get By" show how much drama he could find in a simple melody without ever raising his voice, while Alec Wilder's "Trouble Is a Man" adds a touch of after-hours melancholy.

Miles Davis credited Hawkins with teaching him how to play ballads, and this is the kind of record that explains why. Nothing here is rushed, and nothing is wasted. Put it on after dark, turn the lights down and let the Hawk do the rest.
