John Coltrane: Blue Train - Limited 180-Gram Blue Colored Vinyl with Bonus Track (Vinyl LP)

Usually ships in 3-6 business days

Includes new specially prepared liner notes by PENGUIN GUIDE TO JAZZ's writer BRIAN MORTON and by Paris' prestigious JAZZ MAGAZINE. All the qualities one associates with Coltrane - the iron-hard tone, the harmonicprecision and freedom, the often overlooked rhythmic elasticity - are already present here, but for the moment at least, the blues is still his basic language. This album marks John Coltrane's third recording as a leader. Though he had yet to realize many of the greatestachievements of his career, the fact that he established himself as an instrumentalist and as a composer so early and with such authority is a feat that few have accomplished.
