      Joe Henderson was a Blue Note/Van Gelder studios stalwart in the 60s/70s. His tenor work on such original jazz standards as Herbie's Maiden Voyage, Kenny Durham's Blue Bossa, and others too numerous to mention here, is legendary. As a bandleader he also commanded the respect of his many Blue Note stablemates, who recorded with him as part of his ensembles. One such stablemate was the undisputed Prince of Blue Note, the late Mr. Lee Morgan. They will forever be inextricably linked to the classic Morgan masterpiece, The Sidewinder. Yours indeed was a valuable find! Keep searching...there are many such artistic jazz treasures yet to be discovered. Trust me!🎷🎺🎹

      It's George Coleman on sax on Maiden Voyage, but I agree Joe Henderson was a great musician and one of my favorites when I first got into the music. Love the video. At first I thought it was man Clifford Jordan and that is why I had to check it out.

    Damn, this is so beautiful. Horace had just written this, as he announced. They hadn't recorded it yet and it sounds like they were still kind of working it out, even though their solos are nothing less than brilliant in creativity. Carmel was only briefly with Horace Silver and by the time they recorded this title for the "Cape Verdean Blues" LP, Woody Shaw was now on the band, and Horace added the intro for the album recording, which is not heard here. So interesting that playing live really brings out an inventive creativity that studio recordings often do not.

      @Lance Dugger yes when I first started following Horace live, his band was w/Bennie, Randy Brecker on trumpet and Billy Cobham on drums. Joe was already out on his own as a leader by then. Most of my friends were following the good rock bands of the era - Hendrix, the Who, the Airplane etc. Woodstock generation. Horace was MY rock and roll lol. Always used to say there woulda been a lot more jazz fans if they heard Horace. Check out Serenade to a Soul Sister or You Gotta Take A Little Love on Blue Note for a taste of that era.

    Bennie Maupin on Sax? Looks & sounds like him.

      I'd say Joe Henderson, although I recon it could be Maupin. Henderson was Silver's sax at that time and played this tune on its 65 album release (Cap Verdean Blues). Maupin joined Silver later on though and could have been replacing Henderson. I'd bet on Carmel Jones on trumpet...
