What is your favourite Coltrane album ?

If I could only have two, they would be Ballads and Coltrane with Johnny Hartman ... both on Impulse. Everything mentioned here is good stuff, and you can't go wrong with any of these suggestions. I have 'em all. One that is usually not in the conversation is Crescent. Nice pressing and great music!

Which Coltrane? I am not sure. I like his saxs. It's like Miles - I may not like much paticular track or album but I always like his trumpet. I know Favourite Things.
Let's see, at least three to begin with - Blue Train, Giant Steps and Love Supreme.

I like the Giant Steps CD reissue--it sounds great and has some really good outtakes (several versions each of Naima and Giant Steps, for instance). Lotta bang for the buck.

Without a doubt "Blue Train". If I had to select only 1 cut from one LP, it would be "Blue Train".

Agree w/ Blue Train, but the other album you've got to own that is halfway an answer to your question is:

Thelonious Monk With John Coltrane Quartet at Carnegie Hall (Mono reissue is fantastic!). Cheers,

Spencer
