John Coltrane: Fearless Leader

Read "Fearless Leader" reviewed by Marc Medwin

by Marc Medwin

2007 is a significant Coltrane year as we commemorate his untimely death in July, 1967. 2006 predated the occasion with a fine release more quietly revelatory than the shocking Monk and Trane At Carnegie Hall (Blue Note, 2005) concert. Fearless Leader groups together, on six discs, the sessions that Coltrane recorded for Prestige ...
