Description:LIMITED EDITION CLASSIC LP's High-definition premium vinyl pressing for super fidelity. The way this music was meant to be heard. 180 gram VINYL -AUDIOPHILE PRESSING By 1960 Coltrane had recorded many sessions as a sideman for Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Kenny Burrell, and Tadd Dameron, among others. He had also taped quartet albums, some of which were issued under his own name while others were released under the name of pianist Red Garland. His next release as a leader, Giant Steps, was the confirmation of Coltraneâ??s importance in the jazz scene. There, for the first time, all of the tunes were his, and his personal style appeared completely developed. Coltrane Jazz was the next album to hit the shelves after Giant Steps and marked the transition from his experimental groups to his final classic quartet. Trane then recorded the music to be issued on The Avant Garde (with Don Cherry), Coltraneâ??s Sound and the all-time classic My Favorite Things, and after that he embarked on the making of Coltrane Plays the Blues, a thematic LP consisting of six tunes based on the blues. â??Blues for Bechetâ?, one of the two pieces on this album on which Trane plays the soprano sax, is obviously dedicated to the jazzman who brought this instrument to jazz: Sidney Bechet. Pianist McCoy Tyner sits out on â??Blues to Bechetâ? and both takes of â??Blues to Youâ?, reducing the band to a trio on these tracks. -
