2018 2LP 180gm stereo pressing in laminated gatefold. 45rpm remastered limited edition #000385. Features The Sidemen, McCoy Tyner On Piano; Steve Davis, Bass & Elvin Jones On Drums. "Coltrane's Sessions For Atlantic In Late October 1960 Were Prolific, Yielding The Material For My Favorite Things, Coltrane Plays The Blues, And Coltrane's Sound. My Favorite Things Was Destined To Be The Most Remembered And Influential Of These, And While Coltrane Plays The Blues Is Not As Renowned Or Daring In Material, It Is Still A Powerful Session. As For The Phrase "Plays The Blues" In The Title, That's Not An Indicator That The Tunes Are Conventional Blues (They Aren't). It's More Indicative Of A Bluesy Sensibility, Whether He Is Playing Muscular Saxophone Or, On "Blues To Bechet" And "Mr. Syms," The More Unusual Sounding (At The Time) Soprano Sax. Elvin Jones, Who Hadn't Been In Coltrane's Band Long, Really Busts Out On The Quicker Numbers, Such As "Blues To You" And "Mr. Day"." AMG - Richie Unterberger.
