After almost two decades experience at the forefront of the British and European Jazz scene, Denys Baptiste still brims with the confidence of a youthful spirit. With a stellar band that fires on all cylinders and a new home at Edition Records, Denys? career continues to grow and blossom. This ?is an album by an artist in total control of his vision, a bandleader flexing his muscles and a musician in his instrumental prime.

With The Late Trane,? Denys Baptiste has made a bold statement, a defining marker of his future ambitions and a reverent acknowledgement of this remarkable man and the music that has undoubtedly been a vital influence in his own career. Yet Denys is very much his own man with his own vision, an artist with his own voice and his own sense of destiny. The Late Trane? views the work of Coltrane through the prism of this experience, through the global sound of London.

It is 50 years since John Coltrane departed from this world and there?s seems no better time to celebrate and pay tribute to one of the great musicians of the 20th Century.
