After establishing himself as a new star with Miles Davis quintet, the Thelonious Monk quartet, and various Prestige recordings with Sonny Rollins, Hank Mobley, and Tadd Dameron, Coltrane made his debut as a leader with this LP. It includes his own compositoins such as "Straight Street" and "Chronic Blues," and his inimitable explorations of little-heard old pop songs such as "Violets For Your Furs," "While My Lady Sleeps," and "Time Was."
