Harold Mabern - Mabern Plays Coltrane (2021) [Official Digital Download]

Saxophonist John Coltrane is among the most influential figures in the history of jazz. That goes without saying. Between his own records and the records that pay homage to Coltrane, his music has remained in the mainstream for ages and is certain to for many more to come. Another of those noted tributes will see the light of day Friday through Smoke Sessions Records in the form of jazz pianist Harold Mabern’s new live CD, Mabern Plays Coltrane. The hour-plus presentation is an impressive new offering from beginning to end. That is proven in part through its featured songs. They will be discussed shortly. The group’s performance thereof is of its own import to the recording’s presentation and will be examined a little later. The recording’s production rounds out its most important elements and will also be discussed later. Each item noted is important in its own way to the whole of the presentation. All things considered, they make Mabern Plays Coltrane a wonderful listening experience for fans of Coltrane, Mabern, and casual jazz fans alike.
