New View!

New View is a live album by saxophonist John Handy and his quintet, recorded and released in 1967. It was Handy's second live and third release for Columbia. The original LP features three pieces: two Handy originals and a version of "Naima", recorded as a homage to saxophone legend John Coltrane, who would die three weeks after this recording (July 17). The subtitle "In Memory of" was expressly added for the release in late 1967. The song "Tears of Ole Miss (Anatomy of a Riot)" was inspired by the Ole Miss riot of 1962 and initially performed by Handy's Freedom Band, a group formed in 1963 to raise funds for Civil Rights causes.
