Coltrane's Sound is an album of music by the jazz musician and composer John Coltrane. It was released in 1964 through Atlantic Records. It was recorded at Atlantic Studios in 1960 during the sessions for My Favorite Things, and was assembled after Coltrane had stopped recording for the label and had a contract with Impulse! Records. Like Prestige and Blue Note Records before them, as Coltrane's fame grew during the 1960s Atlantic used unissued recordings and released them without either Coltrane's input or approval.

On February 16, 1999, Rhino Records reissued Coltrane's Sound as part of its Atlantic 50th Anniversary Jazz Gallery series. Included were two bonus tracks: "26-2" had been previously released on the 1970 album The Coltrane Legacy; and the alternate take of "Body and Soul" had been released on the 1975 album Alternate Takes.
