If you need a reminder of why John Coltrane holds such an essential place in modern jazz, Coltrane Jazz says it clearly. Recorded across just three days, from Oct 24 to 26, 1960, this album captures Coltrane working with remarkable focus and freedom, turning out a session that still feels vital.

With the impeccable lineup of Jones, Tyner and Davis behind him, every performance has a real sense of momentum and clarity. Their playing gives Coltrane's solos the perfect setting, making the whole record feel like a masterclass in instinct, interplay and imagination.
