“After The Rain” is one of my favourite Coltrane ballads ever. True, tasty perfection! It can be found on the album called, “The Gentle Side of John Coltrane”. The whole album is divine and features greats such as Duke Ellington, Johnny Hartman, McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones, to name a few. This song stirs the soul, ignites hope in my heart and always stops me in my tracks. Press play and linger just a little bit longer under the covers or over that warm cup of tea. Perfect for a rainy or snowy Vancouver Sunday ; )
