What is your favourite Coltrane album ?

I would like to have one or two of his record albums. Recording quality is important too, of course. And what are the best pressings, original American, Japanese pro, something else?
I am familiar with his sound but not well enough.

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

The Thelonius Monk Quartet with John Coltrane at Carnegie Hall that came out maybe 6-7 years ago is great and sounds fantastic. One Blue Note/EMI.

My Favorite Things-(Atlantic)

I've seen there is an XRCD version of "Black Pearls", which I've never heard but wondered why it was singled out for the JVC catalog. Any fans of that release?

Inna, maybe there isn't any "Trane" that will meet your musical sensibilities. Tell me what you think about this;
