Our Take

John Coltrane’s "New Thing at Newport" is a bold and audacious statement from the legendary saxophonist. Recorded live at the Newport Jazz Festival in 1965, this album captures Coltrane at the peak of his powers, pushing the boundaries of jazz in thrilling and unexpected ways. From the moment Coltrane takes the stage, it’s clear that this is no ordinary performance. The opening track, "One Down, One Up", is a tour de force of improvisation, with Coltrane’s saxophone soaring and diving with reckless abandon. Joined by an all-star band that includes McCoy Tyner on piano, Jimmy Garrison on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums, Coltrane leads the group through a series of thrilling and unpredictable twists and turns. The highlight of the album is undoubtedly the epic 27-minute rendition of "My Favorite Things". Coltrane’s interpretation of the Rodgers and Hammerstein classic is nothing short of revelatory, with his extended improvisations taking the melody to bold new places. The audience at Newport is clearly enraptured, cheering and applauding as Coltrane and his bandmates reach new heights of musical ecstasy. "New Thing at Newport" is a must-listen for any fan of jazz music. It’s a fearless and uncompromising statement from one of the genre’s true innovators, and a testament to the enduring power of Coltrane’s music. So pour yourself a glass of something strong, sit back, and let the music wash over you. You won’t be disappointed.
