After establishing himself as a new star with the Miles Davis quintet, the Thelonious Monk quartet, and various Prestige recordings with Sonny Rollins, Hank Mobley, and Tadd Dameron, Coltrane made his debut as a leader with this LP. It includes his own compositions such as "Straight Street" and "Chronic Blues"; and his inimitable explorations of little-heard old pop songs such as "Violets for Your Furs," "While My Lady Sleeps," and "Time Was."

with Johnny Splawn, Sahib Shihab, Red Garland, Mal Waldron, Paul Chambers, Albert "Tootie" Heath
