  Al Cohn/Perkins/Kamuca - The Brothers (MCD-1003)
Al Cohn, Bill Perkins and Richie Kamuca share two important communalities: spending formative years as members of Woody Herman's orchestra and being profoundly influenced by the rounded tone and impeccable lyricism of Lester Young.
Tenormen like Cohn, Perkins and Kamuca generated their intensity with a low flame and high heat.
It was Cohn and Sims who carried on the tradition for the next two decades.

  VH1.com : Al Cohn : Biography - Urge Music Downloads
An excellent tenor saxophonist and a superior arranger/composer, Al Cohn was greatly admired by his fellow musicians.
But it was when he replaced Herbie Steward as one of the "Four Brothers" with Woody Herman's Second Herd (1948-1949) that Cohn began to make a strong impression.
Al Cohn continued in this fashion in the 1960s (although playing less), in the 1970s he recorded many gems for Xanadu, and during his last few years, when his tone became darker and more distinctive, Cohn largely gave up writing to concentrate on playing.

  Ny Tid - Norges første nyhetsmagasin
Al Cohn er muligens kjent for sin rolle som en av de "fire brødre" i Woody Herman's storband 1948 og ikke minst kjent fra sitt mangeårige samspill med tenoristkollegaen Zoot Sims.
Al Cohn rakk riktignok ikke å være med på den legendariske innspilingen av "Four brothers", men fikk jo bryne seg på kollegene Sims, Stan Getz og Serge Chaloff i en rekke konsertversjoner.
Cohn ble så langvarig medlem av Elliot Lawrence's orkester (1952-58), og her kom Sims innom vinteren 56.

Al Cohn continued in this fashion in the 1960s (although playing less), in the 1970s he recorded many gems for Xanadu, and during his last few years, when his tone became darker and more distinctive, Cohn largely gave up writing to concentrate on playing.
He made many excellent bop-based records throughout his career for such labels as Prestige, Victor, Xanadu, and Concord; his son Joe Cohn is a talented cool-toned guitarist.

 Prestige LP 154: Miles Davis Plays the Compositions of Al Cohn
The soloists had to be good to sustain interest, and they were, but it was felt that Miles needed a change of pace for his next recording date; compositions and arrangements which would suit him and result in a happy combination of arranged music and solo work.
The man who achieved this was Al Cohn, the unheralded great of the tenor saxophone, as well as the composer's and arranger's desk.
Thanks to Miles, Al, and Zoot Sims, with help from John Lewis and Sonny Truitt, the "solo" is not neglected and the feeling that they show in their reading of the arrangements (underlined, and punctuated by Kenny Clarke; propelled by Leonard Gaskin and Kenny) makes the "happy combination" possible.

As with his previous partner, Al manages (with Spike's sensitive collaboration) to show how much a pair of tenors can bring to their teamwork.
Al Cohn's tenor prowess throughout his career is widely documented in numerous musical contexts, though some of his best long-playing recordings (especially "Cohn on the Saxophone" and "The Blues Is Everybody's Business") are unlikely ever to be released on CD.
Whereas Cohn began to play more aggressively and extrovertishly with the passing years, Spike held to a lyrical and thoughtful Getz line.

Zoot Sims and Al Cohn shine on this studio set recorded in 1960, featuring standards and originals.
Among the highlights on the CD are the two Cole Porter standards, "You'd Be So NiceTo Come Home To" and "Love For Sale", along with a bass and mumbles solo on Angel Eyes, accompanied by Zoot and Al on their clarinets.
Sims and Cohn are among the great tenor duos in jazz history and this CD, along with their other recorded works together, is valuable to sax players and fans alike.

Seine damalige Einzigartigkeit bestand in der Kombination von drei Tenor- und einem Baritonsaxofon, wobei die vier Stimmen in engen Intervallen zusammengeführt wurden, um einen homogen-einheitlichen Klang zu erzeugen.
Im Laufe der Jahre gehörten auch Al Cohn, Bill Perkins und Richie Kamuca zu den Tenoristen Hermans, die 1955 als baritonloses Triumvirat genau den Zeitgeist trafen.
Unter anderem von Hank Jones und Sam Beethoven (Jimmy Raney!) swingend unterstützt, ist das entspannte Treffen ein Treffer in der Diskografie des Initiators Al Cohn.

Al Cohn was a tenor saxophonist who came about in the early -æ50s heavily influenced by the swinging sound of Lester Young.
Also recognized as a fine composer, Cohn played straight jazz with a cool sound not too different from Zoot Sims (with whom he shared a band).
His sound grew more somber as he continued recording until the -æ80s, but it never lost its' relaxed, warm intensity.
