This 2007 set contains all the of dates Coltrane participated in as a sideman (or collaborator) between 1956 and 1958."...when these sessions were cut, Coltrane had rejoined the Miles Davis Quintet, and was playing as part of Thelonious Monk's group (resulting in the historic Live at the Five Spot date). He kept a busy profile, working constantly not just to pay the bills, but to push at something within himself he was trying to get to. These seven full albums on these five discs offer a very direct view of that process, while showcasing some of the truly awesome talent on display in music during the mid-'50s: Mal Waldron (who composed 12 of the 34 tunes here and performs on 20): Red Garland and Tommy Flanagan are also here. In addition, figures like Pepper Adams, a young Hank Mobley, Al Cohn, Zoot Sims, Paul Quinichette, Webster Young, Idrees Sulieman, Cecil Payne and Kenny Burrell, Doug Watkins, Art Taylor, Paul Chambers, Louis Hayes, Jimmy Cobb, Ed Thigpen, and Frank Wess".

Packaging has some marks inside and out and the centres for the discs don't hold them in place very well; discs themselves have marks but play fine. Grading overall is conservative.
