I can't imagine not owning lots of Coltrane, but here is an excellent one-disc selection of some of the best of the Coltrane material (on Atlantic) with a the accent on the slower tunes. The disc is very easy to listen to. Favorites on the slow side include include "Naima" and the much-loved "My Favorite Things." The only more up-tempo pieces are the classic "Giant Steps" and "Cousin Mary." The disc was produced by Nesuhi Ertegun. — Michael Erlewine
