New Collection Examining Coltrane’s Work as a Sideman including the Trailblazing Saxophonist’s Work with Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Red Garland, Tadd Dameron & Art Taylor!

180g Vinyl 2LP-Set Mastered by Paul Blakemore at CMG Mastering with Lacquer Cutting by Clint Holley at Well Made Music

While John Coltrane’s legacy largely focuses on his innovative and influential work as a leader, the saxophonist and composer began his career as a highly respected sideman, who rose to fame playing alongside some of the greatest names in jazz. Craft Recordings’ new release, Another Side of John Coltrane, explores this aspect of the trailblazing artist’s career and spotlights some of his best work in sessions led by Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Red Garland, Tadd Dameron, and Art Taylor.

The collection is produced by Nick Phillips, mastered by the Grammy-winning engineer Paul Blakemore, with lacquers cut by Clint Holley at Well Made Music. Another Side of John Coltrane also includes new liner notes by the award-winning journalist, author, and Jazz Journalists Association’s Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, Doug Ramsey. This 180g vinyl 2LP edition also includes two bonus tracks, not featured on the CD or digital: “Nutty” (from Thelonious Monk with John Coltrane) and “Birks’ Works” (from Soul Junction by the Red Garland Quintet ft. John Coltrane and Donald Byrd).
