John Coltrane Blue Train Limited Coloured Vinyl LP

Overview:

This album was recorded September 15, 1957, in Hackensack, New Jersey. The personnel includes Coltrane’s Miles Davis bandmates, Paul Chambers on bass and Philly Joe Jones on drums - both of whom had worked before with pianist Kenny Drew - and trumpeter Lee Morgan and trombonist Curtis Fuller, who were then up-and-coming jazz musicians and would go on to join Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. All of the compositions were written by John Coltrane, with the exception of the standard “I’m Old Fashioned”. The title track is a long, rhythmically variegated blues with a sentimental theme that gradually shows the major key during Coltrane’s first chorus. “Locomotion” is also a blues riff tune, in forty-four-bar form.
