Jazz / Hard Bop
Recorded: Feb 7, 1958, Van Gelder Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey
This album continued the reinforcement of Trane's importance as a stylist. As in Coltrane and John Coltrane and the Red Garland Trio, his first two albums as a leader for Prestige, the material in Soultrane is away from the ordinary. The Garland–Paul Chambers-Arthur Taylor rhythm section is a perfect accompanying unit for Trane who, by this time, was acknowledged to be-along with Sonny Rollins-one of the two most influential tenor saxophonists in jazz.
Includes liner notes by John Corbett.
John Coltrane - tenor saxophone
Red Garland - piano
Paul Chambers - bass
