A collection of the legendary saxophonist’s sideman sessions for Blue Note Records from 1956-1957, when Coltrane was a regular member of the Miles Davis Quintet and played with pianist Thelonious Monk. This set, conceived by former Blue Note Records president Bruce Lundvall, marks the first time Coltrane’s sideman sessions for the label have been collected in one place; albums include recordings led by Paul Chambers (Chambers’ Music, a.k.a. High Step, and Whims of Chambers), Johnny Griffin (A Blowing Session) and Sonny Clark (Sonny’s Crib).

The 2014 John Coltrane anthology Sideman: Trane’s Blue Note Sessions compiles cuts the influential saxophonist appeared on for other artists’ various Blue Note albums. These are sides Coltrane recorded in 1956-1957, before he was the innovative giant he would become in the ’60s. During this time, he was a working member of trumpeter Miles Davis’ quintet, and an occasionally featured player with pianist Thelonious Monk. Here, however, Blue Note president Bruce Lundvall has brought together cuts Coltrane recorded for album sessions with three heavy-hitting artists, pianist Sonny Clark, bassist Paul Chambers, and saxophonist Johnny Griffin, with tracks culled from such albums as Clark’s 1959 date Sonny’s Crib, Chambers’ 1956 and 1957 albums Chambers’ Music and Whims of Chambers, and Griffin’s 1957 classic A Blowin’ Session. This is a three-disc set, presented in the original mono audio, and accompanied by a 34-page liner note booklet. While these tracks have been anthologized elsewhere, Sideman: Trane’s Blue Note Sessions marks the first time all of Coltrane’s recordings as a hired gun for the storied jazz label have been collected in one place; that alone makes this a welcome addition to Coltrane’s catalog, not to mention a fascinating portrait of the saxophonist on the verge of his most transformative period.
