John Coltrane - I Want to Talk About You (Live)

John Coltrane is almost more of a name than a presence now. Beloved by bohos of every generation for over forty years, his reputation as an uncompromising trailblazer is fully earned, but misleading. Like, say, William Shakespeare, one of Coltrane's more impressive features as an artist was his emotional range. In other words, he didn't just do one thing brilliantly, he could do a lot of different things. Here he shows what he could do when playing a ballad. It's beautiful in every old-fashioned sense of the word, but he never stops being Coltrane.
