As far as I can recall Tony Coe has always had that style. Someone once said that "he doesn't play the saxophone, he paints notes in the sky with it" Some call it quirky, others call it genious. Count Basie liked it so much that TC was asked to join his band but he declined. Mancini liked it enough for TC to play the theme for "The pink Panther" for him.

i think all the players up there are great only 1 missing is tubby hayes but tony coe how original to play off the chords that way space and timing not quirky genius it is what seperates us mortal plyers from them

Yes, Seffrid. Quirky's the right word. Tony's a unique player, and I think he was just trying to do something different to Johnny and Ronnie either side of him. They were both linear, so he went for angular. Bear in mind that this is a much abbreviated version of the number - all of the other live versions I've heard are at least 10 minutes long, giving each player a longer solo.

What is the cool if this movie/track is not cool...

Ahhh! The nostalgia. Remember Tony Coe on alto in Humph's band - at the Conway Hall?

... kann ich nur beipflichten.
Die Sax No End Version LIVE at RonnysClub
ist noch um einiges besser.
Aber es gibt NOCH eine SUPER-Live-Version
von Orchester Kurt Edelhagen ca. aus dem Jahre
1962 oder 64, aus Tour-Ostdeutschland,
wo Boland viele Titel arrangierte und ein großer Teil
der Boland-Musiker NOCH bei Edelhagen in Köln waren.

When you're improvising, there are no mistakes; because you're creating your own masterpiece at moments notice. There are too many anal-retentive perfectionists in this world who are just freaking bores.

Sometimes, listening too closely, as either armchair critic or musician, can reveal seeming "mistakes". If you listen less critically - as a five year old might hear it, these mistakes become miraculously subsumed into a strange thing called music. All sounded good to me.
