Review: The still hugely influential John Coltrane is as iconic as jazz saxophonists get and during the late 1950s he was explorer ever wider new musical realms. Stardust was released in 1963 and was recorded with musicians including pianist Red Garland, bassist Paul Chambers and drummers Jimmy Cobb and Art Taylor. The album features some standard cover tunes but the laying of Coltrane in particular is so standout that he manages to really elevate each one. The hard-bop arrangements are all engaging from front to back and packed with subtlety to make them all the more emotive with each new listen.

Review: Lush Life is a seminal recording amongst many from the late great and legendary John Coltrane. It came at a time when his sound was transitioning between styles and after he had overcome his addiction to narcotics. He had first played with the Miles Davis Quintet in 1955 before starting his own quartet with McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison, and Elvin Jones in 1960 and this one was made from three different recording sessions. Side A is by a trio setup with no piano while the flip is a quintet with Donald Byrd and Red Garland showing their skills. Devoid of the speedy, flashy solo skills he'd been known for in his early career, this is almost ambient, much more about the lush textures and meditational pace than be bop ever was.
