 Rating:  - Trane has time enough for TynerIn the vast, almost surreally expansive litany of John Coltrane music, this CD stands out for a number of reasons. For one, it provides a glimpse of the man sort of at a cross roads, where he was still whipping out the licks he has since become famous for, but where he also delves into an improvisational method that borders on the avant-garde, and indeed - many would argue - heralds that era.

Period.Of all the magnificent peaks of John Coltrane's legacy, this one is the highest and most perfect. It should "Crescent", not the overrated "Love Supreme" or any other album, that should be considered the standard, appealing to Coltrane novices as well as the most hardcore collectors looking for musical challenges. This album is stunning from beginning to end, every track beautifully intense and urgent, yet controlled, with no flaws. "Crescent" may be considered by some as Coltrane's "darkest" collection (with ... Read More |
