I've heard stories on Coltrane, one is that during one of his bandmates improv solos (used to be in the area of 10-20 mins) he'd walk off stage, go downstairs and practice..and come up right before they ended thier improv. Amazing, but how about Mingus on tenor? Hell he mastered bass, and piano (Mingus Plays Piano 1963)

its some of the most virtuistic music in the world in my opinionthe complex chord progressions that are so spontaneously and perfectly improvised ontop of is insane.
