Our Take

Grab your horn-rimmed glasses and prepare to journey back in time with Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane's self-titled album, reissued as part of the Original Jazz Classics Series. This record is hotter than a cup of Yorkshire Tea on a brisk morning in Leeds.

Burrell's smooth guitar licks intertwine with Coltrane's legendary saxophone skills like two quirky characters in a British comedy. You can practically hear the rain clouds parting as they transport you to a dimly lit jazz club in the heart of London.

Tracks like "Why Was I Born?" and "Lyresto" showcase the dynamic range of these two jazz giants, with Burrell's sophisticated phrasing and Coltrane's soulful improvisation taking centre stage. It's like listening to the Beatles cover Oasis – pure musical magic.

The reissue does justice to the original recording, with crisp production that allows every note to shine like a polished pair of Doc Martens. Whether you're a seasoned jazz aficionado or just dipping your toes into the genre, this album is a must-listen for anyone with a taste for vintage vibes and toe-tapping tunes.

So, put on your best tweed blazer, pour yourself a pint of ale, and let Kenny Burrell & John Coltrane sweep you off your feet on a whirlwind tour of swinging sixties jazz. Cheers, mate.

With a tone that's simultaneously buttery and biting, Burrell's playing is a testament to his technical prowess and emotional depth. Despite his immense talent, Burrell remains a humble figure in the jazz world, preferring to let his music speak for itself. Whether he's playing a slow ballad or a swinging uptempo number, Burrell's guitar work is always imbued with a sense of warmth and authenticity that's impossible to resist. John Coltrane: When it comes to jazz legends, there are few names as revered as John Coltrane. The saxophonist's innovative approach to music has left an indelible mark on the genre, influencing generations of musicians and listeners alike. From his early days as a sideman in Miles Davis' quintet to his groundbreaking work as a bandleader, Coltrane's discography is a testament to his restless creativity and unparalleled talent. Albums like "A Love Supreme" and "Giant Steps" are not just milestones in jazz history, but timeless works of art that continue to inspire and provoke. Coltrane's playing is characterised by its ferocious intensity and spiritual depth, with each note seeming to reach deep into the listener's soul. Whether he's exploring complex harmonic structures or letting loose on a blistering uptempo tune, Coltrane's music is always a powerful and transformative experience.
