Giant Steps (Tommy Flanagan album)

Giant Steps (subtitled In Memory of John Coltrane) is an album by pianist Tommy Flanagan recorded in 1982 featuring compositions by John Coltrane.

Reception
AllMusic awarded the album 4.5 stars, with reviewer Bob Rusch stating: "This set was particularly inventive; it was Coltrane's music, but it drinks of its own spirit. You won't listen for the familiar Trane solos, but you will listen!" The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote in 1996 that it was "one of the finest piano-trio albums of the last 20 years".
