{"title":"John Coltrane","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout John Coltrane\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn William Coltrane was born in Hamlet, North Carolina on September 23, 1926 and raised in High Point, North Carolina. He served in the US Navy from 1945 to 1946. He worked extensively as a sideman through the 1950s - most notably with Miles Davis's First Great Quintet (1955-1957) on landmark Prestige and Columbia material including Round About Midnight (1957), and with Thelonious Monk's quartet in 1957. His own Prestige and Atlantic Records material across 1957-1961 - including the landmark Giant Steps (1960) with its challenging harmonic progressions and My Favorite Things (1961, with his Atlantic quartet) - established him as a foundational soloist. He signed with Impulse! Records in 1961 and assembled his classic quartet (with McCoy Tyner on piano, Jimmy Garrison on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums) - recording landmark material including A Love Supreme (1965), Crescent (1964), and others. His final period explored free jazz and avant-garde directions through Ascension (1966) and Interstellar Space (1967). He died of liver cancer on July 17, 1967 at age 40. His wife Alice Coltrane continued musical work and his son Ravi Coltrane is also a jazz saxophonist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSound and style\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eJohn Coltrane's sound is foundational to multiple jazz traditions - combining hard bop, modal jazz, post-bop, free jazz, and avant-garde jazz with his distinctive virtuosic technical approach (the sheets of sound technique from his Coltrane changes era), spiritual and religious engagement (particularly from A Love Supreme onward), and his foundational influence on the broader saxophone tradition. His foundational influence on jazz and broader contemporary music is widely cited as one of the most important contributions to the form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiscography highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue Train (1958, Blue Note)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGiant Steps (1960, Atlantic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Favorite Things (1961, Atlantic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfrica\/Brass (1961, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLive at the Village Vanguard (1962, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallads (1962, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColtrane (1962, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrescent (1964, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Love Supreme (1965, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAscension (1966, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeditations (1966, Impulse!)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterstellar Space (1967\/1974, Impulse!) - with Rashied Ali\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor collectors\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal Atlantic and Impulse! pressings of the John Coltrane catalog are foundational items in jazz collecting.
