Claudia rules

Claudia ruled!! I hope she can come back, too! Growing up, my dad was a trombone player in a jazz group so I was exposed to some aspects but I don’t know how much of it was Coltrane. He was one of the bandleaders and has a penchant for big band, swing and some fusion stuff. That said, this was an excellent listen. I loved Mr. P.C. and Cousin Mary. I didn’t get to spend as much time with the alternate takes but I think that will be nice to dig into next time I need some instrumental stuff while I’m working - I’m on a bit of a Donna Summer kick right now lol

Claudia was amazing

Claudia was such a charming guest and it was great that you could bring on somebody who could speak to the power of Coltrane's art, and the artistry of jazz musicians overall.

One of my favorite and the best jazz records ever. I think it’s perfect front to back and is a good example of a record that starts out with the best song on the album but is then able to keep quality consistently throughout the rest of it. 5/5 for me, so glad Shawn got to listen to this one. Also just picked it up on vinyl earlier this year.

I'm going to save my review until after I watch the video for a change because I have a strong suspicion Claudia, your dear sweet friend, will help me to appreciate it more.
