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 ...

What Did He Say?

What Did He Say? (1997) more music like this

by Victor Wooten

A superb, varied, playfully crafted disc, and an absolutely stunning effort that surpasses expectations. The music varies from funk and rap to a fantastic version of John Coltrane's "Naima," to a beautiful, very different -- yet quite recognizable without being boring -- version of the Lennon/McCartney standard "Norwegian Wood." The shifts of ...

The Very Best of John Coltrane [Rhino]

The Very Best of John Coltrane [Rhino] (2000) more music like this

by John Coltrane

Released in 2000, The Very Best of John Coltrane is hardly the first best-of collection by the seminal saxophonist, and you can bet certain that it won't be the last. Focusing on 'Trane's influential Atlantic output of the late '50s and early '60s, this CD shouldn't be confused with previous Best of John Coltrane collections from Pablo/Fantasy ...

by Marian McPartland

Pianist Marian McPartland displays her versatility throughout this reflective and generally thoughtful CD on such selections as the Beatles' "In My Life," John Coltrane's "Red Planet," Ivan Lins' "Velas," and Ornette Coleman's "Ramblin'." Despite the diverse repertoire, McPartland's own flexible style shines through and her individual musical ...

Ballads: Remembering John Coltrane (2001) more music like this

by Karrin Allyson

Jazz vocalist Karrin Allyson strikes a sentimental chord with this super fine 2001 release, inspired by tenor sax titan John Coltrane's infamous Ballads LP.

Four for Trane

Four for Trane (1964) more music like this

by Archie Shepp

From 1964, Archie Shepp's first date as a leader featured -- as one would expect from the title -- four tunes by John Coltrane, his mentor, his major influence, and his bandleader. The fact that this album holds up better than almost any of Shepp's records nearly 40 years after the fact has plenty to do with the band he chose for this session, and ...

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 ...

Dance of the Rainbow Serpent

Dance of the Rainbow Serpent (1995) more music like this

by Carlos Santana

Guitarist Carlos Santana continues to record music, but when contemplating his body of work, it's difficult not to telescope to the "vintage" 1969-1975 period, from first albums Santana and Abraxas through to Lotus. Dance of the Rainbow Serpent offers a well-rounded, three-disc overview of his career, but its the sultry Latin rhythms and stinging ...

Life (2007) more music like this

by David "Fathead" Newman

On this Highnote set, master saxophonist David "Fathead" Newman digs back into the past for standards from the worlds of film, pop, jazz and theater. The disc is named after a composition by the late pianist John Hicks, a familiar companion on a number of Newman dates over the past ten years, who passed away in 2006. The album is dedicated to his ...

Oscar Castro-Neves has been one of the most important Brazilian musicians on the jazz scene for some time. His skills as a guitarist, vocalist, composer, and arranger are all on display in this release.

Milestone Profiles [Milestone] (2006) more music like this

by McCoy Tyner

McCoy Tyner's association with Milestone was extremely beneficial to his career, as he recorded 19 albums as a leader for the label, in addition to the Milestone "All Stars" quartet with Sonny Rollins during his eight-year tenure with the label. Condensing such a prolific output onto a single disc to profile his work for Milestone involved some ...

Afro Blue Impressions (1963) more music like this

Taken from several European concerts (producer Norman Granz is vague about the exact dates but those listed are educated guesses), this double CD finds John Coltrane and his classic Quartet playing their standard repertoire of the period. The nine songs include "Chasin' the Trane," "My Favorite Things," "Afro Blue," "I Want to Talk About You," ...

Boasting even more star power than its predecessor, Sounds of Wood & Steel, Vol. 2 again celebrates Taylor guitars with an impressive lineup including Clint Black, Nanci Griffith, Rodney Crowell, and Richie Sambora; the consistently excellent fretwork aside, the collection is also notable for featuring the first new collaboration from Kenny ...

Directions in Music: Live at Massey Hall (2002) more music like this

by Herbie Hancock/Michael Brecker/Roy Hargrove

A double-milestone year for jazz, 2001 marked the 75th anniversary of the births of both Miles Davis and John Coltrane. With that in mind, Herbie Hancock went on tour with a quintet modeled after his V.S.O.P. bands of the '70s and '80s and the Tribute to Miles band of the '90s, which in turn were modeled after the 1965-1968 Miles Davis Quintet. ...

A Love Supreme: The Legacy of John Coltrane (2007) more music like this

by Turtle Island String Quartet

With the master's 80th birthday in mind, the Turtle Islanders pay their respects to the repertoire of the mighty Trane, adding their own custom-built tribute, "Model Train" -- which has a modal structure much like that of "Impressions" -- and a pair of numbers associated with John McLaughlin. As the album's centerpiece, "A Love Supreme" -- all ...

After the Rain (1994) more music like this

by John McLaughlin

In the early '70s John McLaughlin was one-third of the supergroup Lifetime with drummer Tony Williams and organist Larry Young. This particular CD from 1994 matches him with drummer Elvin Jones and organist Joey DeFrancesco, but the music has little in common with Lifetime. Instead many of the tunes can be considered to be tributes to John ...

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 ...
