John Coltrane - The Very Best of ..
Release Date: February 15, 2000
Label: Rhino Records (USA)
Bitrate: 320 kbps

Album Notes:
The importance of John Coltrane as an inexhaustible, groundbreaking improviser cannot be overstated. His

distinctive sound, melodic imagination and storied dedication to the craft remain an inspiration both to other

saxophonists, and to later generations of jazz musicians. These landmark sessions--a highly accessible,

essential core of the Coltrane legacy--were recorded just after his bracing work with Miles Davis and Thelonious

Monk, and signaled Coltrane's emergence as a dominant and enduring musical force. He reshaped standards

like "Body & Soul" and "Summertime" into his own heady, harmonic image. The classic recording of "My

Favorite Things," probably Coltrane's most popular, introduced his soaring soprano sax and had pianists

scrambling to decipher McCoy Tyner's revolutionary chord voicings. Coltrane's trademark "sheets of sound"

cover "Central Park West," and the Afro-Cuban bump of "Like Sonny" (a nod to tenor-titan Sonny Rollins), while

other original compositions such as the highly influential "Giant Steps" present radical ideas that musicians still

grapple with today. I got this album a couple of years ago. This album was my first taste of jazz, and right after I

listened to it, I was hooked. I love Jazz. I have investigated other great jazz musicians, like Charlie Parker, but

John Coltrane is by far, my favorite. If you like jazz, by this CD now. ~ Traughh

EXPERT RATING:

From AMG Reviews:
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 (Pablo 2405-417) or Atlantic (Atlantic 1541), although everything Atlantic chose for the latter can

also be found on this collection, including "My Favorite Things," "Equinox," "Giant Steps," "Naima," "Cousin

Mary," and "Central Park West." This CD, however, is more generous and also includes such gems as

"Summertime" from My Favorite Things, "Mr. Syms" from Coltrane Sings the Blues, "My Shining Hour" from

Coltrane Jazz, and "Body and Soul" from Coltrane's Sound. Seasoned Coltrane fans will already be familiar with

these essential 1959 and 1960 recordings, so the person that Rhino obviously had in mind when it released this

disc was the casual listener. All of Coltrane's Atlantic output is worth owning, and most of it is truly essential. But

for those who have yet to experience the joys of Coltrane's Atlantic period and need a course in Introductory

Coltrane 101, this CD would be a very rewarding and logical starting point. ~ Alex Henderson, All Music Guide
