It's hard to fathom that John Coltrane's recorded output as a leader spans only about a decade, during which time he was transcendent. Words cannot adequately describe Trane's impact which continues to to be felt more than five decades after his passing. Every jazz musician since treads with reverence in his giant footsteps. This video is part one of a two-part tribute to a true giant. ABOUT THIS SERIES The Jazz History series is a video adaptation of a PowerPoint presentation used to teach a university course in jazz history. It traces the roots of jazz from Ragtime at the turn of the 20th century to jazz-rock fusion at the end of the 1960s. You’ll find a lot more videos like this one in the JAZZ HISTORY playlist on this channel.
