Our Take

John Coltrane, the man, the myth, the legend. This box set of Four Classic Albums is a journey through the mind of a musical genius. Featuring Coltrane's iconic albums Blue Train, Giant Steps, A Love Supreme, and My Favourite Things, this collection is a must-have for any jazz aficionado. Blue Train kicks off the set with its smooth, flowing melodies and killer saxophone solos. Coltrane's virtuosity shines through on every track, leaving you feeling both elated and deeply moved. Giant Steps takes things up a notch with its complex chord progressions and lightning-fast improvisations. This album is not for the faint of heart, but for those willing to dive headfirst into the world of avant-garde jazz. A Love Supreme is where Coltrane truly unveils his soul. The spiritual journey he takes listeners on is nothing short of transcendent. From the hauntingly beautiful "Acknowledgement" to the frenetic energy of "Resolution," this album is a masterpiece from start to finish. And let's not forget My Favourite Things, Coltrane's iconic take on the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein tune. This album is a whirlwind of emotion, with Coltrane's saxophone weaving in and out of the melody with pure abandon. In conclusion, John Coltrane's Four Classic Albums is a tour de force of musical expression. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to the world of jazz, this box set is guaranteed to blow your mind. Don't miss out on this one, folks.
