CD ReviewsGreat compilation and value for your money. Antonio Palacios | Perú | 12/06/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Coltrane is one of the most talented saxo player in the history of jazz. When he was interviewed he was always shy and modest, and refused to speak about his music. Because the music has to talk by itself, he used to say. An that's what happens in every Trane's albums. The music speaks. He learned a lot wit Monk and in THE Miles Davis Quintet. His stop in Mile's band consolidated his unique technique (sheet of sounds) and his chromatic and full length solos. Personal albums like Giant steps, Blue Train and, of course, A love supreme are proof of that. He never wanted to repeat himself. He was always searching, exploring, trying (in his own words) to wake up every morning and discover his music again. What we have here is an attemp to compile some of the greatest moments in Coltrane's career. I give my respects to the result. Uptempo songs like ¨Russian Lullaby¨ and ballads like ¨The way you look¨ offers you a very extensive musical panorama of what Coltrane could do. Other jewels like ¨Bahia¨and ¨Trane's slo blues¨ are present too. So, this is a good start if you want to hear Coltrane for the first time or a good chance to increase your personal Trane collection. I'd like to add something: The CD art packaging o the Prestige Profiles is great, and every volume comes with a bonus disc of other musicians that played for the record company (this bonus CD comes with songs by Sonny Rollins, Hank Mobley and Eric Dolphy to name some of the most importants figures included)" Mediocre Jeff Carsten | Charlotte, NC USA | 02/23/2006 (2 out of 5 stars) "With so much outstanding Coltrane music available, it's disappointing to listen to the Prestige repackaging of their archives of the major talents of the 50's. Some of the tracks here are really quite nice - Russian Lullaby and Trane's Slo Blue stand out - but these are overshadowed by the sessions that put Coltrane in a quintet/sextet grouping with such dim bulbs as Sahib Shiab and Idrees Sulieman. Lackluster performances also come in from Donald Byrd, Cecil Payne, and Pepper Adams. The best cuts are the quartet with Red Garland, Paul Chambers, and Arthur Taylor. The big problem, however, is the "house band" feeling to the album, with Coltrane just one of the front men. That's disappointing."
