John Coltrane Blue Train (Blue Note Mono Remaster)

Description

Blue Note Tone Poet Mono Remaster on 180-Gram Vinyl

On September 15, 1957, John Coltrane went into Rudy Van Gelders living room studio in Hackensack, NJ, and recorded his first great masterpiece: Blue Train. It would be the legendary saxophonists sole album as a leader for Blue Note, a locomotive five-track album fueled by the bluesy title track that featured a dynamic six-piece band with Lee Morgan on trumpet, Curtis Fuller on trombone, Kenny Drew on piano, Paul Chambers on bass, and Philly Joe Jones on drums. To mark the 65th anniversary of the albums recording, Blue Train is released as part of Blue Notes acclaimed Tone Poet Audiophile Vinyl Reissue Series, produced by Joe Harley, mastered by Kevin Gray from the original analog master tapes, pressed on 180-gram vinyl at RTI, and packaged in a deluxe gatefold tip-on jacket.
