Our Take

John Coltrane and Don Cherry's Avant-Garde is a mind-bending journey through the experimental world of jazz. From the moment you press play, you are catapulted into a sonic landscape filled with unexpected twists and turns.

The album opens with the chaotic frenzy of "Cherryco," where Cherry's trumpet and Coltrane's saxophone engage in a playful dance, constantly pushing the boundaries of traditional jazz. This is followed by the hypnotic "Focus On Sanity," a track that showcases the duo's ability to create spellbinding melodies out of seemingly dissonant sounds.

Throughout the album, Coltrane and Cherry's chemistry is palpable, as they seamlessly weave in and out of each other's musical ideas. Tracks like "The Blessing" and "The Invisible" highlight their prowess as improvisers, with each musician pushing the other to new heights of creativity.

Avant-Garde is a testament to Coltrane and Cherry's willingness to take risks and explore the outer limits of jazz. It may not be for everyone, but for those willing to dive headfirst into the unknown, this album is a wild, exhilarating ride that is sure to leave you breathless. Grab your jazz hands and hold on tight, because Coltrane and Cherry are about to take you on a whirlwind of musical madness.
