Great Saxophone Artists and Albums


I'm looking for well recorded masterpiece of saxophone albums. Can you recommend a few artists and their albums. I was familiar with Kenny G's - that was over 10 years ago. Any other different styles and genre of saxophone performers?

Thanks.

Well recorded:
Joshua Redman, Spirit of the Moment - Great live album, really cooks
Jeff "Tain" Watts, Detained at the Blue Note - Phenomenal with Marcus Strickland and Kenny Garrett

Masterpiece saxophone albums:
John Coltrane, A Love Supreme - One of the greatest in the history of jazz
Sonny Rollins, The Complete Prestige Recordings - A master musician

Honorable mention:
Hank Mobeley, At the Cafe Bohemia, with Art Blakey, Horace Silver, Kenny Dorham
Phil Woods, More Live - A great sax player, a little more laid back, great recording
