Hate to be wet blanket #2, but I don't think that remix is the proper
term...what most of the great jazz artists did was "cover" the tunes -
they reworked them, rearranged them, improvised on them, and made them
completely their own.  I would also like to second that Coltrane
recommendation...fucking brilliant.
