Tenor Saxophone - John Coltrane

Sixteen CD box set containing almost all of the work of John Coltrane produced between May 7, 1956 and December 26, 1958, under the Prestige Records label.

These 125 titles and over 1100 minutes of music, aided in reshaping modern jazz. All lovers of the famous Giant Steps and My Favorite Things, will be delighted with this set (with a booklet of 80 pages). The Prestige Years is not only an introduction to the work of John Coltrane, but also to the Jazz of the 50s, proving once again that he is one of the most creative artists of all time.
