Collector’s Note:
This issue holds special significance as it features tenor saxophone giant Coleman Hawkins on the cover, a rare honor for the pioneering figure often credited with establishing the saxophone as a lead jazz instrument. Inside, readers will also find a career-spanning feature on Budd Johnson and early coverage of rising talent Richie Havens, making this a compelling piece for collectors interested in both jazz legends and emerging voices of the late 1960s.
