Description:

A new project disc focusing on John Coltrane as a man again, which celebrates the 95th anniversary of his birth this year, is now available. This new collection includes performances with great jazz musicians such as Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Red Garland, Tad Dameron, and Art Taylor. Although Coltrane's main legacy is as an innovative and influential leader, he began his career as a highly regarded sideman, performing with some of the greatest musicians in jazz. This film explores aspects of this pioneering artist's career, focusing on his signature session work with Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Red Garland, Tad Dameron, Art Taylor, and others. Produced by Nick Phillips, mastered by Grammy(R)-winning engineer Paul Blakemore, and racked by Well Made Music's Clint Holly, this is the first time the album has been released in the United States. Also included are new liner notes by Doug Ramsey, journalist, author, and recipient of the Jazz Journalists Association's Lifetime Achievement Award.180g vinyl 2LP. 2 bonus tracks "Nutty" (from "Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane") and "Birks' Works" (from "Soul Junction" Red Garland) not included on the CD or digital version.
