John Coltrane - Giant Steps LP xxzine both in style and substanceWhat more is there to say about one of the greatest ever? Except that seeing this cover of Giant Steps again gave me a sense memory reaction of first listening as a teenager after a mate introduced me to it. A record that I had no context for at the time, except that it shredded in a way that blew any of the classic rock guitarists that I loved at the time, and even though I understand the context a bit more now, it still shreds!
