...extraordinary virtuosity, and his technical facility is very evident throughout his performance. With his cascading solo lines and fluid, rapid-fire outbursts of notes, he seems extroverted almost to the point of brashness.

...Village Vanguard" falls roughly at the midpoint of Coltrane's career, both chronologically and stylistically. He had just changed recording labels and had only recently settled on a brilliant rhythm section featuring pianist McCoy Tyner and drummer Elvin Jones. Coltrane's style and musical conception never stopped changing throughout his career, and these recordings reflect a serious departure from the structures and techniques of mainstream jazz of the time.
