Crescent
Sandwiched between two of the Coltrane's greatest masterpieces - 'Live at Birdland' and 'a Love Supreme' - 'Crescent' is often forgotten. But this album of four ballads and one blues is full of understated beauty. 'Crescent', 'The wise one' and 'Lonnie's Lament' are three of the Coltrane's most beautiful compositions;. These are some of the first ballads in the later Coltrane style, with the saxophone playing the theme in free time over the rumbling rhythm section. If you liked 'a love supreme', this is an excellent choice for your next Coltrane album.
