Blue Train

Iconic John Coltrane LP ‘Blue Train’ + bonus track pressed on 180g blue vinyl, includes new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide To Jazz’s writer Brian Morton and Paris’ prestigious Jazz Magazine.

“This album marks John Coltrane’s third recording as a leader. Though he had yet to realize many of the greatest achievements of his career, the fact that he established himself as an instrumentalist and as a composer so early and with such authority is a feat that few have accomplished.” – Jazz Magazine, Paris

“All the qualities one associates with Coltrane – the iron-hard tone, the harmonic precision and freedom, the often-overlooked rhythmic elasticity – are already present here, but for the moment at least, the blues is still his basic language.” Penguin Guide To Jazz
