big fan here. im wondering why specifically your are looking at these sets...are you looking for a place to start?

i would say all three of the sets look great. personally, ive always preferred the earlier work, compared to the later free jazz...

if your looking for a place to start, i would start with giant steps, my favorite things, blue train, lush life and the gentle side of coltrane....start early and work towards the end of his life

unless you like dissonance and wailing...which i do...just prefer bop

my favorite coltrane record is Africa Brass Volumes I and II...to me its his finest and the large band is unusual and kicks *ss
