In an old thread here, there was a reference to an album by John Coltrane called "Creation" of which I have never heard, but which is described in the thread as being something that was passed around between those in the know in the early 80s, and which influenced Marsalis and co. I've listened to a bit of the album online and it is quite something. The sound quality is iffy but it has a burning intensity to the soloing. Plus, it is Coltrane with his classic quartet. Despite all that, it seems to have almost no presence online, other than a rather uninformative wikipedia page. What it this album, and why is it referenced so little? Is it a bootleg?

I don't think I've heard anyone mention the finale from Fauré's sonata for cello and piano no. 1 as a source for Giant Steps, and I suppose we'll never know, but still ... The fun starts just after the 30-second mark and continues throughout. What do we think? This would be an unsurprising composer and piece for Coltrane to have been listening to, or maybe even playing (given the cello's register).
