Review: AMG Review by Scott Yanow 1957 was one of the great years for the veteran tenor-saxophonist (who was then 51); he suddenly became rediscovered, even though he had never suffered a period of decline. The Hawk Flies High found him playing mostly with bop-oriented musicians a couple decades his junior (including trombonist J.J. Johnson and trumpeter Idrees Sulieman) and more than holding his own. The memorable "Sanctity" has a particularly classic Hawkins solo but each of the six tracks are quite enjoyable. Personnel: - Coleman Hawkins (tenor saxophone) - Idrees Sulieman (trumpet) - J.J. Johnson (trombone) - Hank Jones (piano) - Barry Galbraith (guitar) - Oscar Pettiford (bass) - Jo Jones (drums) Recorded at Reeves Sound Studios, New York on March 12 & 15, 1957.
