This alto saxophonist has performed with his son Denardo on drums for the past forty years, including on his recent album Sound Grammar. His reputation took off in 1959 with the release of an album with the songs "Lonely Woman" and "Focus on Sanity".

Name this musician who one year later released the album Free Jazz: A Collective Improvisation, on which the title track lasts thirty-seven minutes.
