This is what John Coltrane's landmark tune and solo look like when they come to life on paper.
If you try to play along, you may notice that the transcription for the head is transposed for C and the solo's in Bb. Weird, I know, but the transcription book that I based this animation on was in concert.
You can buy the sheet music here:

Ok can anyone explain how this songs chord changes work, I've read a ton of guides online and youtube videos and I'm still confused. I'm pretty good at music theory too so I'm not sure why I can't grasp the concept of how it moves Keys down a Sharp Sixth... where does this modulation occur?...

@jimFrobel i think what you are hearing at 3:39 to 3:53 is a minor 7th which is by no means "losing it", actually using that as a transition to Bb from C is an amazing idea and one of the greater concepts as for as jazz piano is concerned of its time. you should consider yourself lucky to be able to hear such an amazing piece of art rather then complaining about it. just sit back and listen.
