Coltrane, Flanagan, Burrell, Sulieman - The Cats LP

The Cats is an album by jazz pianist Tommy Flanagan recorded on April 18, 1957 and released in December 1959 on New Jazz, a subsidiary label of Prestige Records.^[1][2] It is credited to Flanagan, saxophonist John Coltrane, guitarist Kenny Burrell, and trumpeter Idrees Sulieman. It was issued after Coltrane's Prestige contract had ended.

In a five-star review for AllMusic, Michael G. Nastos wrote: "From the opening number... you realize something special is happening... The Cats is a prelude to much more music from all of these masters that would come within a very short time period thereafter, and cannot come more highly recommended. It's a must-buy for the ages."
