Coltrane is joined by Lee Morgan, Curtis Fuller, Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones. The album features performances recorded in 1957 at the Van Gelder Studio in New Jersey.
Review: John Coltrane is joined by Kenny Drew, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe Jones for this record, and all three had played together on an album the pianist recorded for Riverside Records, so they were already acquainted with each other’s style. The rest of the band is made up of Lee Morgan (trumpet) and Curtis Fuller (trombone), and was recorded at Van Gelder’s Studio, Hackensack, New Jersey, 15 September,1957.
For the title track alone it is worth buying this record – and its value is virtually doubled by the addition of a ‘Moment’s Notice’ – Quite simply, this record is a masterpiece. So familiar is ‘Blue Train’ that it feels like a theme to some long-forgotten TV series or the soundtrack of an atmospheric movie. It is everything that makes jazz so affecting.
Along with the four Coltrane originals there is a beautiful reading of the Jerome Kern and Johnny Mercer standard, ‘I’m Old Fashioned’ that is unapologetically sentimental and among Coltrane’s finest ballads – and he was a master balladeer.
