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, whom would die by sheer coincidence in those days (July 17). The subtitle "In Memory of" was expressly added for the release in late 1967.[1][2]
