Our Take

Ah, John Coltrane, the mythical jazz titan whose saxophone solos could make even the most stoic listener shed a tear. This Original Album Series box set is a delightful trip down memory lane, featuring five of Coltrane's most iconic albums, all in one convenient package.

First up, we have "Giant Steps", a landmark album that showcases Coltrane's virtuosity and unmatched improvisational skills. Tracks like "Naima" and the title track "Giant Steps" are not just songs, they're experiences that will transport you to a different realm of musical excellence.

Next, we have "My Favorite Things", where Coltrane takes on the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein tune and turns it into a mesmerising jazz epic. The album's title track is a revelation, with Coltrane's saxophone weaving in and out of the melody with effortless grace.

Moving on to "A Love Supreme", considered by many to be Coltrane's magnum opus. This album is a spiritual journey that will leave you feeling enlightened and inspired. The four-part suite is a musical masterpiece that transcends genre boundaries and touches the very essence of the human soul.

Overall, this Original Album Series is a must-have for any jazz aficionado. With its timeless classics and innovative compositions, John Coltrane's music continues to inspire and captivate listeners of all generations. So, sit back, relax, and let the magic of Coltrane's music wash over you.
