The record
Brushwork and cascading piano chords give this session a hush that sets it apart from the quartet's louder statements, Coltrane sounding almost tender on tenor and soprano alike. Overshadowed by what came right after, it marks its own quiet turning point.
Session personnel
- Jimmy Garrison — bass
- Elvin Jones — drums
