Thanks for the transcription! Great Coltrane's solo to learn and absorb quite a lot of his vocab's most repeated and nice licks :)

This is an excellent transcription. Is it just me or is the solo itself lacking something as if Coltrane was off his game at this session?

[@TimothyVesely]

In what aspect exactly? The phrases have nice shapes to them, time-wise he floats around the beat as per usual and he implies some interesting harmonies as well in this fairly diatonic piece. What exactly is it lacking for you? I recommend trying to learn it, one gets much deeper idea of what is happening that way on a very intuitive lvl.

totally agree... he is not on his sweet way

[@enkaku2642]

This is early trane - he is still getting together all the elements of his own style. A year or so later he would join monks group and really start to take off with his 'sheets of sound' style.
