Wabash is a jazz composition by Cannonball Adderley, released on the 1959 Mercury album Cannonball Adderley Quintet in Chicago. The track runs about 5 minutes and 46 seconds and is part of a Chicago studio session recorded February 3, 1959. The album features John Coltrane on tenor sax, Wynton Kelly on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Jimmy Cobb on drums, and is the group’s final Mercury release. Wabash sits among six tracks that showcase a strong alto-sax and tenor-sax dialogue between Adderley and Coltrane, a hallmark of the set. The album was later reissued as Cannonball & Coltrane in 1964 on Limelight. A notable aside from this session is that Bill Evans would substitute for Wynton Kelly on most tracks, and the players soon recorded Kind of Blue with Miles Davis.
