Giant Steps

Giant Steps (1959) more music like this

by John Coltrane

History will undoubtedly enshrine this disc as a watershed the likes of which may never truly be appreciated. Giant Steps bore the double-edged sword of furthering the cause of the music as well as delivering it to an increasingly mainstream audience. Although this was John Coltrane's debut for Atlantic, he was concurrently performing and ...

The Heavyweight Champion: The Complete Atlantic Recordings

The Heavyweight Champion: The Complete Atlantic Recordings (1959) more music like this

by John Coltrane

The Heavyweight Champion is a box set that lives up to its title. Collecting all of John Coltrane's Atlantic recordings, including a fair number of unreleased takes as well as an entire disc of alternate tracks and studio chatter, the seven-disc box set documents a pivotal moment in Coltrane's career, as he was moving from hard bop and sweet ...

The Hottest New Group in Jazz [Compilation] (1959) more music like this

by Lambert, Hendricks & Ross

The immortal vocal jazz group Lambert, Hendricks & Ross recorded five albums during its career: one apiece for Impulse! and World Pacific and three for Columbia. This two-CD set has all of the music from LH&R's Columbia dates (The Hottest Group in Jazz, Sing Ellington, and High Flying), plus four previously unissued and three very obscure ...

Road Tested

Road Tested (1997) more music like this

by Hank Crawford & Jimmy McGriff

Jimmy McGriff continued on a high roll on his second tour with Milestone, taping another dual-billed soul-jazz album with the redoubtable Hank Crawford. You know what to expect by now -- hardass, down-home, blues-drenched organ trio-plus-sax grooving -- but this is a really potent gusher of that genre, rising to the level of McGriff's idiom ...

Ken Burns Jazz

Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this

by John Coltrane

In conjunction with the release of Ken Burns' ten-part, 19-hour epic PBS documentary Jazz, Columbia issued 22 single-disc compilations devoted to jazz's most significant artists, as well as a five-disc historical summary. Since the individual compilations attempt to present balanced overviews of each artist's career, tracks from multiple labels ...

The Paris Concert

The Paris Concert (1962) more music like this

by John Coltrane

This excellent CD by the classic John Coltrane Quartet (with pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison, and drummer Elvin Jones) is highlighted by a 26-minute version of "Mr. P.C." Also included on the album are "The Inch Worm" and the ballad "Every Time We Say Goodbye." Although the sound and passion of the group on this date will not surprise ...

Absolutely Out There

Absolutely Out There (2007) more music like this

by John Coltrane

There are two live dates here, probably bootlegged, from Coltrane's first solo European tour. The first disc features the Coltrane Quartet with Eric Dolphy à la the Village Vanguard band but predating those performances. The second is the quartet without him -- the latter may have been recorded as late as 1962. The two dates share two pieces in ...

The seven-CD set Live Trane expands upon Pablo's earlier CDs of John Coltrane recorded during his European tours between 1961 and 1963, including all of The Paris Concert, Bye Bye Blackbird, The European Tour, and Afro Blue Impressions, and supplementing them with extra songs from most of these concerts. Of the 37 tracks, 19 have not previously ...

Von & Ed (1999) more music like this

by Von Freeman & Ed Peterson

Tenors Von Freeman and Ed Peterson had participated in several battles at the Green Mill in Chicago before they officially came together for this Delmark album. With the rhythm section of Willie Pickens, Brian Sandstrom and Robert Shy, the pair turn in an energetic, adventurous set. John Bush, All Music Guide

Visionary (1995) more music like this

by Michael Mason

Stylistically, John Coltrane's work as a leader can be divided into three main periods: (1) his hard bop period of 1957-1959, (2) his modal/post-bop period of 1960-1964, and (3) his radical free jazz period of 1965-1967. Of course, the saxophone giant also had a long list of credits as a sideman, and that includes everything from his membership in ...

The Man Who Cried Fire (1973) more music like this

by Rahsaan Roland Kirk

Perhaps more than any other player, Rahsaan Roland Kirk embodied the entire history of not only jazz but 20th century American music in his playing. No matter which of the many horns he played (more often than not three at once), he would cut through an original composition, something from the current pop repertoire, or a jazz or R&B nugget that ...

One on One, With McCoy Tyner (1990) more music like this

by Stephane Grappelli with McCoy Tyner

Violinist Stephane Grappelli, although a veteran of the swing era, has always kept an open mind toward newer styles even while he has retained his own sound and veteran repertoire. This duet set with pianist McCoy Tyner might seem unlikely at first glance but it works quite well. The duo sticks to standards (including two that are associated with ...

The Long Journey (2001) more music like this

by Jean-Michel Pilc & Hein Van De Geyn

Pianist Jean-Michel Pilc showed lots of promise with his early recordings, so the idea to pair him with the veteran bassist Hein Van De Geyn was an inspired one. The chemistry gels immediately as they tackle Miles Davis' "Nardis," which is almost always identified with Bill Evans because of the legendary pianist's many recordings of this modal ...

The European Tour (1963) more music like this

by John Coltrane

Norman Granz produced a couple of the John Coltrane Quartet's European tours, releasing some of their live performances years later. Although the liner notes state that these performances of "The Promise," "I Want to Talk About You," "Naima" and "Mr. P.C." are from Nov. 1962, they are actually taken from their Stockholm concert of Oct. 22, 1963. ...

You Leave Me Breathless (1991) more music like this

by Junior Cook

Tenor saxophonist Junior Cook's final recording, cut less than two months before his death, finds the veteran hard bop stylist in surprisingly prime form, taking upbeat solos and swinging hard. On this CD, one can really hear the mutual influence that Cook had on Joe Henderson. Trumpeter Valery Ponomarev is also in particularly fine form, and the ...

The Best of Hank Crawford and Jimmy McGriff (2001) more music like this

by Hank Crawford / Jimmy McGriff

Hank Crawford and Jimmy McGriff didn't co-lead a studio date until 1986, when Bob Porter (one of the top producers in the soul-jazz field) produced their Soul Survivors album for Milestone. But alto saxman Crawford and organist McGriff should have recorded together long before that because they have so much in common. Both are soul-jazz/hard bop ...

Milestones (1990) more music like this

by Claudio Roditi

There aren't many trumpeters around more animated and energetic than Claudio Roditi. His searing solos and equally fiery accompaniment have been featured in several bands, and he takes center stage on Milestones. Besides his solos, the disc has some first-rate songs and an even better group. Alto saxophonist Paquito D'Rivera, pianist Kenny Barron, ...

Brian Trainor's Portraits includes his own impressions of people he has admired (none of whom are jazz musicians), as well as works by others honoring fellow jazz players. With a strong band including trumpeter/flugelhornist Cecil Bridgewater, saxophonist Steve Marcus, bassist Vince Fay and drummer Bill Jones, the pianist kicks off the CD with a ...
