My Take
Carrying the Coltrane name into a saxophone career is the kind of pressure I cannot imagine, and that is precisely why Ravi Coltrane earns my respect. Rather than coast on his father's legend, he built his own voice, co-running a label and producing artists like Luis Perdomo and Ralph Alessi. To me he is a case study in how second-generation artists can honor a towering inheritance without being crushed by it. There is real courage in choosing the same instrument as one of history's giants and still insisting on your own sound.
