Bаgѕ & Trаnе is an аlbum сrеdіtеd to jаzz musicians Mіlt Jасkѕоn аnd Jоhn Cоltrаnе, rеlеаѕеd in 1961 оn Atlаntіс Records.

AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 5 stars and stated:”Vibraphonist Milt Jackson and tenor saxophonist John Coltrane make for a surprisingly complementary team on this 1959 studio session, their only joint recording. With fine backup by pianist Hank Jones, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Connie Kay, Bags and Trane stretch out on two of Jackson’s originals (including “The Late Late Blues”) and three standards: a romping “Three Little Words,” “The Night We Called It a Day,” and the rapid “Be-Bop.” This enjoyable music has been included as part of Rhino’s Heavyweight Champion: The Complete Atlantic Recordings box.”
