{"product_id":"the-last-giant-the-john-coltrane-anthology","title":"The Last Giant: The John Coltrane Anthology","description":"Amazon.com\n\nJohn Coltrane recorded far too much landmark jazz for it ever to fit on just two CDs, but this set is a good introduction to the arc of his career. The set begins with an unreleased '46 jam session from Coltrane's days in the navy; it continues with examples of his sideman work for Dizzy Gillespie, Gay Crosse, Johnny Hodges, Red Garland, Miles Davis, and Thelonious Monk. Coltrane finally steps forward as a major composer and bandleader with 1957's Blue Train for Blue Note Records. The box set then presents seven of his classic 1959-'60 recordings for Atlantic, including \"Giant Steps,\" \"Naima,\" and \"Central Park West,\" before concluding with two unreleased live performances, including a 25-minute version of \"My Favorite Things.\" The Last Giant doesn't include any tracks from the Columbia or Impulse labels, but it's still the best introduction to 'Trane available. --Geoffrey Himes\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000003310\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000003310.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Coltrane, John\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
