John Coltrane’s “Ballads” is one of the most beautiful albums ever produced. All the tunes on this classic were never played by this quartet and when they arrived for the session the arrived with music-store bought sheet music. They would discuss each tune, write out the changes, do a semi-rehearsal for about a half hour and then just do it. Each piece was recorded in one take except “All or Nothing at All”. In 2008 this classic was a recipient of the Grammy Hall of Fame award. This classic features Trane on tenor, McCoy Tyner on piano, Jimmy Garrison and Reggie Workman on bass and Elvin Jones on drums. If you don’t have this classic on your collection it’s a must have and @analogueproductions is releasing a new reissue in October. #johncoltrane #johncoltrane🎷 #johncoltranequartet #impulesrecords #mccoytyner #elvinjones . . . . . #Jazzrecords #classicjazz #ilovejazz #ilovejazzmusic #jazzartist #recordcollector #jazz #jazzvinyl #nowplaying #vinyl #vinylcollection #vinylcollector #vinylporn #jazzmusic #jazzalbumcollection #jazzalbumcollector #jazzjunkie #vinyljunkie #vinylcollector #jgjazzvnyl #vinyllove https://www.instagram.com/p/CEA9tXXHCIo/?igshid=gcrburlfkr6s
