By 1960 Coltrane had recorded many sessions as a sideman for Miles
Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Kenny Burrell, and Tadd Dameron,
among others. He had also taped quartet albums, some of which were
issued under his own name while others were released under the name
of pianist Red Garland. His next release as a leader, Giant Steps, was the
confirmation of Coltrane’s importance in the jazz scene. There, for the first
time, all of the tunes were his, and his personal style appeared completely
developed. Coltrane Jazz was the next album to hit the shelves after Giant
Steps and marked the transition from his experimental groups to his final
classic quartet. Trane then recorded the music to be issued on The Avant
Garde (with Don Cherry), Coltrane’s Sound and the all-time classic My Favorite
Things, and after that he embarked on the making of Coltrane Plays the Blues,
a thematic LP consisting of six tunes based on the blues. “Blues for Bechet”,
one of the two pieces on this album on which Trane plays the soprano sax,
is obviously dedicated to the jazzman who brought this instrument to jazz:
Sidney Bechet. Pianist McCoy Tyner sits out on “Blues to Bechet” and both
takes of “Blues to You”, reducing the band to a trio on these tracks.
