Our Take

If they handed out trophies for "Most Soulful Saxophone", John Coltrane would have a whole cabinet full. His album "Coltrane Plays The Blues" is a masterclass in musical storytelling, blending smooth jazz with a touch of the blues to create a sound that is as comforting as a warm cuppa on a rainy day.

From the opening notes of "Blues to Elvin", Coltrane's saxophone weaves a mesmerising tale that draws you in and keeps you hooked until the very last note of "Mr. Day". Each track is like a mini adventure, taking you on a journey through the highs and lows of the blues, with Coltrane as your guide.

But it's not just Coltrane's saxophone skills that shine on this album. The rest of the band - McCoy Tyner on piano, Steve Davis on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums - bring their A-game to create a seamless and cohesive sound that is nothing short of magical.

Whether you're a die-hard jazz fan or just looking for something new to listen to, "Coltrane Plays The Blues" is an album that deserves a spot in your collection. So grab a cuppa, sit back, and let the smooth sounds of John Coltrane wash over you. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
