1	A Love Supreme (1964) more music like this by John Coltrane Easily one of the most important records ever made, John Coltrane's A Love Supreme was his pinnacle studio outing that at once compiled all of his innovations from his past, spoke of his current deep spirituality, and also gave a glimpse into the next two and a half years (sadly, those would be his last). Recorded at the end of 1964, Trane's ... see all copies from £2.87! new only from £5.14!
2	Thelonious Monk Quartet with John Coltrane - At Carnegie Hall (2005) more music like this by Thelonious Monk/John Coltrane Larry Appelbaum, the recording lab supervisor at the Library of Congress, came across this tape by accident while transferring the library's tape archive to digital. What a find. Forget the Five Spot recording that sounds like it was recorded inside of a tunnel from the far end. The sound here is wonderfully present and contemporary. More ... see all copies from £8.27! new only from £8.27!
3	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 ... see all copies from £4.38! new only from £7.51!
4	John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman (1963) more music like this by John Coltrane with Johnny Hartman John Coltrane's matchup with singer Johnny Hartman, although quite unexpected, works extremely well. Hartman, who had not recorded since 1956, was in prime form on the six ballads, and his versions of "Lush Life" and "My One and Only Love" have never been topped. Coltrane's playing throughout the session is beautiful, sympathetic, and still ... see all copies from £7.52! new only from £7.52!
5	Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program is the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, its 94 selections covering the history ... see all copies from £29.71! new only from £29.71!
6	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 ... see all copies from £35.66! new only from £59.86!
7	Lush Life (1957) more music like this by John Coltrane Lush Life (1958) is among John Coltrane's best endeavors on the Prestige label. One reason can easily be attributed to the interesting personnel and the subsequent lack of a keyboard player for the August 16, 1957 session that yielded the majority of the material. Coltrane (tenor sax) had to essentially lead the compact trio of himself, Earl May ... see all copies from £4.78! new only from £7.22!
8	Blue Train [The Ultimate Blue Train] (1997) more music like this by John Coltrane How do you improve upon an already classic recording? By adding alternate takes and a CD-ROM program to the original issue. The newly added alternate takes of "Blue Train" (whose piano solo was lifted and spliced into the familiar master take) and "Lazy Bird" are welcome discoveries. The numerous photographs from the session and excerpts of a July ... see all copies from £8.51! new only from £8.51!
9	Ballads (1962) more music like this by John Coltrane Quartet Throughout John Coltrane's discography there are a handful of decisive and controversial albums that split his listening camp into factions. Generally, these occur in his later-period works such as Om and Ascension, which push into some pretty heady blowing. As a contrast, Ballads is often criticized as too easy and as too much of a compromise ... see all copies from £3.40! new only from £3.40!
10	The Best of Ken Burns Jazz (2000) more music like this by Various Artists In conjunction with documentary filmmaker Ken Burns' ten-part 2000 PBS special, Columbia/Legacy and Verve teamed up to issue a special series of reissues covering much of the history of 20th century jazz. The central release of this program was the five-CD box set Ken Burns Jazz: The Story of America's Music, which was augmented by no less than 22 ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £5.67!
11 view cover	Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane (1957) more music like this by Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane What this disc lacks in program time is more than compensated for in content. While the teaming of Thelonious Monk (piano) with John Coltrane (tenor sax) might "look better on paper," as the adage goes, rest assured the results are even better on the disc. These were the same bountiful sessions that produced the Monk's Music and Thelonious Himself ... see all copies from £4.27! new only from £8.14!
12 view cover	My Favorite Things (1960) more music like this by John Coltrane Although seemingly impossible to comprehend, this landmark jazz recording was made in less than three days. All the more remarkable is that the same sessions which yielded My Favorite Things would also inform a majority of the albums Coltrane Plays the Blues, Coltrane's Sound, and Coltrane Legacy. It is easy to understand the appeal that these ... see all copies from £2.89! new only from £6.83!
13 view cover	Soultrane (1958) more music like this by John Coltrane In addition to being bandmates within Miles Davis' mid-'50s quintet, John Coltrane (tenor sax) and Red Garland (piano) head up a session featuring members from a concurrent version of the Red Garland Trio: Paul Chambers (bass) and Art Taylor (drums). This was the second date to feature the core of this band. A month earlier, several sides were cut ... see all copies from £3.64! new only from £6.13!
14 view cover	Blue Train (1957) more music like this by John Coltrane Although never formally signed, an oral agreement between John Coltrane and Blue Note Records founder Alfred Lion was indeed honored on Blue Train -- Coltrane's only collection of sides as a principal artist for the venerable label. The disc is packed solid with sonic evidence of Coltrane's innate leadership abilities. He not only addresses the ... see all copies from £2.73! new only from £8.54!
15 view cover	The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever (1999) more music like this by Various Artists The Best Blue Note Album in the World Ever may boast a silly title, but it's hard to argue with what's on this double-disc sampler. Not all of the label's greatest artists are here, but everything is representative, showing how hard bop like John Coltrane's "Blue Train" and Lee Morgan's "The Sidewinder" coexisted with soul-jazz from Grant Green ( ... see all copies from £10.03! new only from £13.14!
16 view cover	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 ... see all copies from £4.21! new only from £6.83!
17 view cover	Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane (1958) more music like this by Kenny Burrell/John Coltrane For his final Prestige-related session as a sideman, John Coltrane (tenor sax) and Kenny Burrell (guitar) are supported by an all-star cast of Paul Chambers (bass), Jimmy Cobb (drums), and Tommy Flanagan (piano). This short but sweet gathering cut their teeth on two Flanagancompositions, another two lifted from the Great American Songbook, and a ... see all copies from £6.02! new only from £8.14!
18 view cover	Duke Ellington & John Coltrane (1962) more music like this by Duke Ellington w/ John Coltrane For this classic encounter, Duke Ellington "sat in" with the John Coltrane Quartet for a set dominated by Ellington's songs; some performances have his usual sidemen (bassist Aaron Bell and drummer Sam Woodyard) replacing Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones in the group. Although it would have been preferable to hear Coltrane play in the Duke Ellington ... see all copies from £4.42! new only from £7.20!
19 view cover	Expression (1967) more music like this by John Coltrane This music came from John Coltrane's final recording sessions, although no one at that time knew it. It was emblematic of his work in that era -- unpredictable, experimental, restless, sometimes remarkable, sometimes more noteworthy for what was being attempted than presented. GRP's recently reissued CD includes a great bonus cut, the nearly 12 ... see all copies from £3.53! new only from £7.67!
20 view cover	Kulu Se Mama (1965) more music like this by John Coltrane This LP, re-released in 2000 and whose contents have been reissued in different sets on CD, features John Coltrane in two different settings. "Vigil" and the spiritual ballad "Welcome" showcase tenor saxophonist Coltrane with his classic quartet (pianist McCoy Tyner, bassist Jimmy Garrison, and drummer Elvin Jones) in June 1965. Dating from ... see all copies from £6.94! new only from £10.73!
21 view cover	The Bethlehem Years (1957) more music like this by John Coltrane This double-disc collection contains three sessions saxophonist John Coltrane recorded for Bethlehem as a sideman at the end 1957. Disc one contains the original album Winners Circle, an all-star date that included, among others, Donald Byrd, Freddie Green, Oscar Pettiford, Gene Quill, Philly Joe Jones, Frank Rehak, Al Cohn, and Eddie Costa. ... see all copies from £4.30! new only from £5.47!
22 view cover	Coltrane for Lovers (1962) more music like this by John Coltrane If you came across a CD titled Getz for Lovers, Prez for Lovers, or Baker for Lovers, you wouldn't be the least bit surprised. After all, Stan Getz, Chet Baker, and Lester "The Pres" Young were all famous for their smooth ballad playing -- if you've been listening to Julie London or June Christy and suddenly find yourself in the mood for something ... see all copies from £4.10! new only from £5.84!
23 view cover	Coltrane's Sound (1960) more music like this by John Coltrane This is one of the most highly underrated entries in Coltrane's voluminous catalog. Although the same overwhelming attention bestowed upon My Favorite Things was not given to Coltrane's Sound upon its initial release, both were actually recorded during the same three-day period in the fall of 1960. So prolific were those recording dates, they ... see all copies from £3.03! new only from £7.07!
24 view cover	The Gentle Side of John Coltrane (1961) more music like this by John Coltrane "Gentle" is a relative term, for while this collection of material is mostly pitched at a slower set of tempos and a more lyrical frame of mind, John Coltrane was no less passionate in a ballad as he was in a roaring frenzy. Originally issued on two LPs, and now as an excellent value on a single CD, The Gentle Side draws nine tracks from the ... see all copies from £4.38! new only from £8.40!
25 view cover	Coltrane Plays the Blues (1960) more music like this by John Coltrane Coltrane's sessions for Atlantic in late October 1960 were prolific, yielding the material for My Favorite Things, Coltrane Plays the Blues, and Coltrane's Sound. My Favorite Things was destined to be the most remembered and influential of these, and while Coltrane Plays the Blues is not as renowned or daring in material, it is still a powerful ... see all copies from £4.06! new only from £7.00!
