Free Music Review: It's the remastering...
Hit: 5 Stars
There is at least one great thing about this set. The remastering is superb. The original re-issues done by Phil De Lancie (if memory serves) were some of the most natural sounding digital re-issues at the time (1988-1992). But, I gather from conversations that I have had with a recording engineer friend, there have been significant improvements in the software and hardware used in remastering since then. And these Prestige re-issues apparently benefit from those improvements. If you are into MP3 or you don't care about high resolution playback, then ignore these re-releases. Otherwise, they are well worth it from a sonic point of view. For what its worth, my reference (in most cases) is the original (or early reissue) vinyl played back on a very good vinyl rig. Finally, the remasters hold their own.
As for the music, I find it fascinating to hear Coltrane working out his musical approach as he passed through these diverse combos. There is usually an edge to his solos that can almost put him at odds with the concept of the rest of the group. But he manages to stay acceptably close to the chord changes and the consensus style. These sets make me appreciate Coltrane anew. Kudos to the remastered re-issues of the Prestige catalog that have been emerging since around 2006.
Interplay Poster
John Coltrane is one of jazz's most influential musicians, but one is hard put to find followers who actually play in his style. Rather, he is influential by example; inspiring musicians to experiment, take chances, and devote themselves to their craft. Interplay, a special 5-CD set highlighting Coltrane's side-man sessions of the 1950's, isn't just a window into his own art, it's a primer in 1950's jazz itself.Blues Music CDs
