Description
The soft triplet swell Elvin Jones plays before Coltrane’s soprano enters on My Favorite Things hints at the ride ahead. He turns a show tune into modal trance, with McCoy Tyner’s left hand pedalling and Steve Davis holding the floor as cymbals shiver. Every Time We Say Goodbye slows the pulse, Coltrane phrasing like a singer and leaving air between lines. Summertime grows darker and more insistent.
This LP pressing opens up the space, and the low end sits deeper. John Coltrane’s My Favorite Things is the first major document of his soprano voice, a sound he’d chase through the next decade. In Melbourne, this is what we point to when someone asks for a doorway into his Atlantic era. If you’d rather order online, you can buy John Coltrane records online with us. File it next to Miles Davis’ modal era, where form loosens and the rhythm section paints in motion rather than fixed chords.
Decades on, the quartet’s balance still feels modern, and details like Tyner’s block chords and Jones’ rolling toms reward repeat spins. Even if you know the title track by heart, this cut puts you closer to the room.
Available online now or in our Melbourne shop, an easy pick for any John Coltrane fan.
