This album should be attributed to John Coltrane Quartet, not just John Coltrane. See album cover.

A record made later in Coltrane's career as an attempt to be more commercial, because his more experimental material wasn't selling as well as he'd liked. Nonetheless, a sincere effort, and beautiful throughout, with Coltrane's great Quartet in top form. My favorite of his, but I generally prefer his more melodic stuff. Only knock: the songs do have a sameness about them; it can seem like one long ballad. (If you love Coltrane, that's not necessarily a bad thing.) Highlights: "Too Young to Go Steady," "Say It (Over and Over Again)" and "You Don't Know What Love Is."
