Coltrane isn't to everyone's liking but to say all he did ws run scales is just STUPID. Being a neophyte on Alto, I imagine you have had conversations with your teacher and he has probably said something like I like blankety blanket because he ie more lyrical. Coltrane just played scales and modes. Anyone can play scales and modes that is not a big deal. He just played them fast....yada yada yada.Coltrane ws about his MUSIC and his GROUP sound. You mis the point. He was not a Pete Maravich who was the SHOW. Coltrane was about his group. You miss the point of his playing and his music.
How long have you been listening to Jazz and how many Jazz records do you own?
