The leader of our next group has found himself in the same situation which Mr. Ellington has known, that of establishing a very distinctive, original personal sound, and then hearing it coming back from all his admirers, and being forced to extend his own creative boundaries once again to find something that is again distinctively his own. I'd like to introduce the members of the group, one at a time. At the drums, Jimmy Cobb... On bass, Paul Chambers... At the piano, Bill Evans... Tenor saxophone, John Coltrane... Alto, Julian Cannonball Adderley... " (Voice from crowd: "Don't move 'em boys, don't touch 'em. Don't move the mikes.")
