John Coltrane: Lush Life

Read "Lush Life" reviewed by David Rickert

by David Rickert
November 6, 2002

Coltrane’s records for Atlantic and Impulse are such towering landmarks that now his work for Prestige is all but ignored. However, there are many excellent albums in the Prestige catalog, and Lush Life, recently reissued in 20-bit, is as good a place as any to start exploring the early days of Trane.

Coltrane Schmoltrane...can he play a ballad? I once read that a well-known music critic opined that John Coltrane might very well be jazz’s most boring genius.

This is one of the least well know Coltrane albums, partly because it is an all blues format and partly because it was released at the end of his association with Atlantic records. Plays The Blues features the talents of McCoy Tyner, Elvin ...
