Great choices. Crescent is right near the top for me, as is "First Meditations" (early version of "Meditations" but I like it better).

Although it was no surprise, I loved your top 5. I think you touched on very good points... my top 5, for example, would be:
My Favorite Things (1961)
Giant Steps (1960)
A Love Supreme (1965)
Blue Train (1958)
Ballads (1963)

Thank you! I also love your Top 5! I recently bought a 2nd US pressing of My Favorite Things and truly start to revalue that album.

Great choices

Great choices indeed ! SOULTRANE was reissued, about 1968-72, with different cover, which says Stereo, but : ( here is a comment from discogs: It may say stereo on the cover, but this album is pure, glorious MONO, with sound that is full-bodied, relaxed, Tubey Magical and tonally correct . Here is the palpable jazz energy, the life of the music, that’s sure to be missing from whatever dead-as-a-doornail Heavy Vinyl pressing is being stamped out these days.) I have such a copy, and it really sounds fantastic.

I also highly recommend 'Coltrane's Sound' (1964) if you haven't heard it in full yet. Though it consists of tracks left out of 'My Favourite Things', I find myself listening more to it than the latter..

[@qwafgjolmfpjbfszxgg1142]

Strongly agree!

[@aussie_philosopher8079]

Hey mate, I bought latest blue train remaster. Holy it sounds very good, I loooove listening to it now.

[@top5records796]

The Blue Note Tone Poet? It is indeed spectacular!

[@aussie_philosopher8079]

Blue train and crescent are my fav followed by giant steps

Do you think she could make me one?

Sweater making is a key skill where he comes from.

[@top5records796]

Thanks! Do you mean like Getz/Gilberto?

[@bandabrownsugar7814]

@@top5records796 Yeah, but not just this one. Have you listen “Rio 65 Trio” with Don Salvador on piano?

[@davidthom7127]
