Our Take

Ah, John Coltrane, the legendary jazz icon whose saxophone solos can make even the most stoic listener break out into a spontaneous scatting session. "Early Trane" takes us back to a time when Coltrane was just starting to make waves in the music scene, but already showing signs of the genius to come.

The album opens with the infectious groove of "Bakai," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the record with its smooth, yet complex arrangements. Coltrane's mastery of the saxophone is on full display here, as he effortlessly weaves in and out of the melody with precision and flair.

Tracks like "Violets for Your Furs" and "While My Lady Sleeps" showcase Coltrane's ability to evoke deep emotions through his music, leaving the listener with a sense of melancholy and longing. It's the kind of music that would make even the most hardened cynic shed a tear or two.

But it's not all sombre moments on "Early Trane." Tracks like "Chasing the Trane" and "Straight Street" inject a sense of urgency and excitement into the album, with Coltrane's saxophone wailing and soaring to new heights.

Overall, "Early Trane" is a delightful journey through the early days of one of jazz's greatest innovators. It's a must-listen for fans of Coltrane and jazz music in general. So grab your beret, pour yourself a glass of whiskey, and let the smooth sounds of John Coltrane transport you to a bygone era of cool.
