Review: An inveterate bebop stalwart, Cole leads the Pittsburgh Alto Madness Orchestra and several special guests in paying tribute to his hero, the legendary alto saxophonist Julian “Cannonball” Adderley. The album comprises a dozen tunes closely associated with Adderley, as well as a brand-new Cole original (“Bell of the Ball”). While Cole often uses ideas from Adderley’s arrangements to formulate his own, no one could mistake either of the altoists for the other—nor would the stubbornly individual Cole want them to.
