Review (Stereophile) Lush Life takes its title from the lead track, a lyrical reading of Billy Strayhorn's signature composition. The album is best known for three cuts in which Coltrane is accompanied by only bass and drums, a setting favored by Sonny Rollins. Legend has it that, rather than being the result of any set plan, this arrangement occurred because the pianist on the date simply didn't show up. Unlike Rollins, who used the extra space to shove in more of everything, Coltrane is not so inspired. More concerned with working out clear articulations of his ideas as well as finding his songwriting legs, he ventures one original and four safe standards. A fast take of Cole Porter's ballad "I Love You," in which he flashes his famous cascading approach (the clichй is "sheets of sound"), and a slow, lush cover of Jimmy Van Heusen's "Like Someone in Love" hint at glories to come. Although still in mono, DCC's gold reissue gives this album a new sonic lease on life, thanks to the quality of Rudy Van Gelder's original engineering and Steve Hoffman's multidimensional remastering.
