Amazon.co.uk Review
Coltrane, recorded in spring 1962, represented an auspicious debut on record for the saxophonist's "classic quartet" line-up of himself, McCoy Tyner, Elvin Jones and Jimmy Garrison. Harold Arlen's "Out of This World" lasts 14 white-hot minutes, Mal Waldron's "Soul Eyes" inspires a ravishing ballad performance, Frank Loesser's "The Inch Worm" approximates "My Favourite Things", "Tunji" is a drone-based tribute to the great percussionist Olatunji, while the modal "Miles' Mode", under the title "The Red Planet", was a core part of his group's live repertoire. At this time in his recording career Coltrane was insisting on multiple attempts to achieve perfection on every selection. For many years it was thought that these extra attempts were irretrievably lost. Not so: Impulse producer Bob Thiele had preserved many of them. Fifty minutes of previously unheard Coltrane is included on this 2CD edition, which sensibly splits the original album and the extra material o! n to separate discs. There's a take each of "Miles' Mode" and the Tyner composition "Not Yet", two takes of "Impressions" and four more of "Tunji". Regrettably though, early pressings of the album include the Coltrane-Ellington version of "Big Nick" instead of the intended Coltrane-Tyner one. --Keith Shadwick
