    All Music Guide Review

    The classic John Coltrane Quartet made one of its final appearances at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1965. The tension among bandmembers is evident on the advanced version of "One Down, One Up." Coltrane's performance is moving...yet weary. It's apparent the saxophonist wasn't getting the sound he wanted and by the end of the year he would take a different direction, hiring Pharoah Sanders and wife Alice Coltrane for the band. Tenor saxophonist Archie Shepp's earlier afternoon New Thing performance included an engaging version of "Call Me by My Rightful Name" with Bobby Hutcherson on vibes. [Verve's six-track reissue appeared in 2009.] ~ Al Campbell, All Music Guide
