Prisoner of Love Hawkins Coleman 1958

In 1958 a TV station in the USA produced a number of jazz shows. These were called the Art Ford Jazz Parties and a total of 13 shows were done. The concept of these shows were free wheeling jam sessions and done by some of the greatest jazz musicians.
In this clip we see host Art Ford doing a short interview with Coleman Hawkins, After that 'Hawk' chooses to play Prisoner of Love. Backing him are pianist Roland Hanna, on guitar is Mary Osborne, and in the final part we see ( and hear a bit) from Tyree Glenn on trombone and a young Johnny Windhust on trumpet.
