The recordings that make up this album were taped during a transitional period in John Coltrane’s musical career. He had first joined the Miles Davis Quintet in 1955 and would form his own celebrated quartet with McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones in 1960. Traneing In was the result of a single session recorded on August 23, 1957, which produced all of the tunes from the album and presents Coltrane in a quartet format backed by Red Garland on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Art Taylor on drums.
