The great John Coltrane, at the head of his quartet (McCoy Tiner, piano, Jimmy Garrison, bass, Elvin Jones, drums), reveals his affection through eight most beautiful ballads each other. His tenor sax, incisive and often voluble on other recordings, settles down here in a climate close to that other album of ballads he engraved with singer Johnny Hartman ("John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman").
