It was released in October 1957 throughPrestige Records.[1][2] The recordings took place at the studio ofRudy Van Gelder inHackensack, New Jersey, and document Coltrane's first session as aleader. It has been reissued at times under the title ofThe First Trane!.

Background

[edit]

As a result of his exposure as a member of theMiles Davis Quintet, Prestige Records owner and producerBob Weinstock offered Coltrane a recording contract. Dated April 9, 1957, it stipulated three albums per year at $300 per album.[7] Coltrane had previously recorded as asideman, and had co-led a session withPaul Quinichette (released in 1959 asCattin' with Coltrane and Quinichette), but never as sole bandleader.[8]

Coltrane had been fired by Davis in April 1957 for drug abuse, and had returned toPhiladelphia to end his habit.[9] He returned toNew York City for mid-May sessions with Prestige, this one taking place the day afterMemorial Day. By the summer, Coltrane would be recording withThelonious Monk and playing as a member of Monk's quartet for the rest of the year.[10]

For his debut, Coltrane chose a tune by his friendCalvin Massey, in addition to threestandards including the relatively obscure "Time Was". Sidemen includedPaul Chambers andRed Garland from the Davis band, and Philadelphia colleagues Johnnie Splawn andAlbert Heath.
