POST # 113 Wes Montgomery on John Coltrane

"There is only one coloured musician with that facility and that's Coltrane. I have listened to him a lot and I'm sure of it. I even took his album, Giant Steps, and played it at 16 r.p.m. to study what he was doing and every note he hit was correct. I think he is greater than Charlie Parker in this respect because Bird died before he could finish what he was doing. But Trane has had the time and the opportunity and he is the only one with that facility." - Wes Montgomery

( Coltrane's Giant Steps played back and transcribed at real time! - Ed)
