John Coltrane

• DIGIPACK EDITION

• 4 STARS ALL MUSIC GUIDE

Issued as part of the John Coltrane: The Atlantic Collection reissues five Coltrane studio albums: Giant Steps, Ole Coltrane, Coltrane Plays The Blues, Bags & Trane and The Avant-Garde. The set received critical acclaim in 2016 including five stars from Downbeat which noted, “With no alternate takes and presented verbatim and presented as the albums were originally issued song-by- song, there is certainly a warmth, clarity and a sense of wholeness that can give new fans a fresh way to listen to Coltrane.”

While John Coltrane first gained attention for his revolutionary ‘sheets of sound’ technique, it was the deep spirituality of his music that really made his recordings as a bandleader such classics. The albums this giant of music recorded for Atlantic in 1959 and 1960 really represent the heart of his legacy.
